Headlamp Wiper Blade Replacement

My headlamp wiper blades have gone old and hard Embarassed

Can anyone explain how I fit new ones? The owners manual is useless and the reference I found in the workshop manual isn't much better. I see that they are clipped in somehow but don't want to break anything by investigating how this is done.... Confused

...but replacement blades are available on ebay from LR dealers. They seem to come with the 'end' of the Brunel finished arm, which is maybe nothing more than a clip-on finisher. I was thinking of ordering a pair - maybe it is obvious how they fit once you have the part in your hand...

The Owners Manual seems to suggest they are dealer-fit only Shocked

OK, sorted this myself Thumbs Up

You simply push out the pin which the blade pivots on with a small flat-bladed screwdriver - it's basically a friction fitting.

Voila - blade removed!

Why that cannot be described in either the owners or workshop manual is beyond me... Confused
