Donnie Posted November 1, 2024 Posted November 1, 2024 The stock numbers on my Rotus build sheet are out of date. Anyone have any current ones that fit? Thanks.
IamScotticus Posted November 2, 2024 Posted November 2, 2024 (edited) If I knew the answer I would say, but Im not sure myself. But its not hard to find out. I can't imagine these being any different that what has been used on the Lotuses and Cats, being taken from an older Leyland or Rover group vehicle. The wiper assembly is one of the things that hasn't changed much over the years. Weale states, "those resembling the Mini". The notes I have are: Blades: Moss # 164-640 Golden Gate lists the S2 motor as Lucas DR3A 75801. https://gglotus.org/ggpart/sevenxref.htm Old Cat patrt #s, which are often generic OEM: Motor 74> 60027020 Wiper arm RHD 74> 120460SEFB Wiper arm LHD 74> TWA14 Wiper blades 74> 205415SEHE Wiper blades Bosh sprung 90035685 Wiper wheel box 74> 72872 Wiper ferrule 74> 54704623 Lotus/ Cat owners manual reprint: Wiper blade: 8413 Wiper arm: 7862 Wheelbox: 7858 Wiper motor: 7301 (Probably Lotus #s) These part numbers may help lead you to the OEM vehicle.

Marek Posted November 5, 2024 Posted November 5, 2024 (edited) I believe the Rotus wiper arms and blades are from an Austin Healey, Triumph, or MG. My memory wants me to claim they are Spridget parts. These guys show the 193-8208 wiper blades as fitting the 1961-1968 MG Midget: https://saintgeorgeltd.com/Part-Listings/WIPER BLADES.html The blades which came on my car have clearly been trimmed to length; suggesting there are longer alternatives. Are your arms missing/damaged? Let me know if you need pictures. Edited November 5, 2024 by Marek
