Default Single wiper on a 3dr

Has anyone got pics of a 3dr with a single wiper conversion? and what is everyones honest opinion on them?

Its just something that I stumbled across browsing the interweb earlier on and would like to see what others think?

I honestly think the 3dr is one of a very few number of cars it would look good on, as long as it's a quality kit

I am not in anyway decided on getting one for my Sierra guys, If I had seen some pics and got some feedback i'd maybe think about getting involved but ive just never seen one on a 3dr or a Saff and wondered what it would look like? But the scuttle panel did cross my mind Stu, can you actually get single holed scuttles to suit?

First pic on my resto thread shows it with one

I just got a lhd scuttle and made 2 halves to make it single. Theyre ok in the rain, unless its really pissing it down! Also, where they're set to park makes a big difference how they look... Deffo a 'marmite' mod! Lol

Dont use the 3dr much anyway it would be for the look if I was to get one?

It would have to be centred

Same here, mine is only used now an then, rarely in the wet... Got mine parked to the side, although its no more out of the way than centred!
