Pictures Of 2004 Galaxy Wiper Area Required.

[MrT]

After replacing my windscreen, the plastic trim around my wiper area has cracked mounts and loose and I want to replace it with the 2004 version. The 2004 version differs in that the bonnet hinge covers (Part 4 & 5 in the diagram) are replaced with a small spoiler. The trim around the wiper shafts (1 & 2) and the the ribbed bridge (3) is replaced by a flatter plastic trim that fits the screen.

 

I have got the bonnet spoiler but I am having difficulty explaining to my supplier what the newer windscreen fitting trim parts (1-3) are as they don't have a 2004 Galaxy to look at. The spoiler does not clear existing parts 1,2 &3. The plate that part 3 fits to could also need replacing with a modified version.

 

If anyone has a 2004 Galaxy with the new lower screen/wiper trim and could post a photo like mine here I would appreciate it.

Thanks DaveC.

 

The particular areas of interest are how the middle bit of trim aligns and fits to the windscreen (I assume there is a mounting plate below it), the panel between the engine and the wiper motor area with the full width rubber strip (hopefully not changed since mine) and where the washers jets are located.
