The arm is from a Citroen Visa car or Citroen C15 van

The Citroen wiper arm is bolt-on, not spline Ken.
A favoured choice though.
The above is a spline/push-on.

Thanks both, but I am still confused.
So what car does the spline/push on come from.
Thanks

It'll be to fit a Lucas wheelbox if it's a Hawk.
I can ask Gerry if Paul doesn't know.

The Citroen arm that Ken mentions, fits the bolt on Lucas wheelbox, and is the correct length for a Stratos.
Historically, it's always been Lucas wiper parts for Hawks, not everyone fits them, but most will.

If Lucas doesn't seem very Italian, Lamborghini Miuras used them for the screen, as did Lancia Beta HPEs on the tailgate.

... I struggled to find a Citroen arm and have bought one of these Exalto LD Wiper Arm 330-450mm | Force 4 Chandlery it has a pinch bolt to work with the normal splines rather than a bolt through the splines so should I hope work with the normal wiper spindle.

Do you think a drill bit could be run through between the teeth that grip the spines so the top nut on the spindle could then be used again.

Should this info be posted in the alternative build parts section

Re the blade itself, I have fitted a 20” supplied by ‘Vipa’, very flexible, more supports along the blade itself which help with fitting the curve at the extremities, and no skidding.

You could drill the cover to accomodate the bolt but I think you would have to fit some sort of IVA compliant nut. I will dig out the arm and post a pic.
