Suggestions:

1. There is a sort of nut cover (round on the outside, hexa on the inside) but hard to find among hardware shop.

2. Chair leg rubber stud(many sizes) easily found in any budget shops. Good temporary solution to prevent the nut from rusting.

Another option would be to call Julie of TS. Am pretty sure they are able to bring in the part for you.

well, went to an old hardware store and bought a pack of 4, size 5, rubber leg studs. cut it to the right height and it turns out to fit the nut nicely.

best of all, cost me only $1 for a pack of 4 studs.....

Sorry to hear about it.....I stay in SengKang too. Din think there are cheapo around.
Anyway, I think this is the detail below. I not sure if their branches elsewhere may have it. I bought my wiper from their Bt Merah branch. Good luck & drive safe.

Hello frenzs,

Thanks for the help. I will go down on weekend to see if they sell the nut cover.

Just my bad luck to meet this type of person who wanted to stole things from my car. *sign*

Anyway, thanks again and Happy Chinese New Year to all the forumers here.

Just had a thought.....Maybe can source from car scrap yard. They may have a similar part or whole wiper you can buy knowing nowaday so many cars being scrapped so early.
