single wiper you mean ? i'd say go for it.. isn't hard at all if you get the right kit, but whatever you do.. dont have the wiper sticking up in the middle of your screen, makes you look like a chav nova driving barryboy.

its very easy if you buy a kit, literally bolt off bolt on job. you can modify your original but they never work as well as a proper kit. i've got one on mine and i'm now not sure if i like it.... :undecided:

if you want to make the boys go wow, put undercar neons on it and shoulder harnesses.

if you want to make the men go wow, slam it to the deck eurostylee with small fat rims :cool:

if you have an early mk2 like moi you can remove the passenger's side wiper and it looks single wiper, but only clears the drivers side :D
