Be careful, they changed design on the L405, not quite sure when - https://www.fullfatrr.com/forum/topic32300.html

The website asks for your reg. number.

I typed a 2019 reg. number in and it said it didn’t have any stock for that. I typed in a 2018 reg. number (“new design” L405) and it claimed to have stock for that model ie the 2012 onwards, hook wiper arm 🤷

I may be talking old school here, as my RR is old, operate rear windscreen wiper and just before it teaches mid stroke, switch off engine / car completely without touching windscreen wiper control, so wiper arm is now at 6-O-clock, worth a try.

Put them in the wiper change position and the front ones come up much further than they do in winter park and the rear moves down into a vertical position at the same time.

I can’t remember the exact process, but it is in the manual. Something like turn ignition on, then off, then push down on the wiper stalk. MY23 Panamera E-Hybrid

Follow this sequence with door open or closed.

1 Switch ignition on then immediately off.
2 Hold down wiper stalk while switching on, wipers front and rear go to park postion. Now change wipers leaving ignition on.
3 Wipers return to normal at ignition off.

Works on 2016 and think it works on other models aswell Thumbs Up

Plan B for the rear - it stops mid stroke if you open the tailgate. Can be a bit tricky as if you press the button again too soon, it closes again, but too late and it's too high.....
