Halfords sell a mixed packet and one that is included is the correct size.

Also worth pulling the washer piping off under the bonnet.

No the only stalk without wiper is a non mfa one, better to run the standard stalk, no need to blank the pipe under the bonnet but do blank it inside the tailgate.

How about a Vento stalk?

Only guessing as I am assuming that as the Vento hasnt got a rear wipe the stalk maybe different!
But maybe they are all the same.

At the end of the day, no real need to change the stalk, if you have pulled the pipe off then it will not matter, that is I did on mine.
