Brake light bulbs = 3rd time lucky
Wipers = no
Oil filter cap remover = no
Got all the bits to do the oil change (which I have to do this weekend before I drive to Scotland) but just cant get the fucking filter cap off 
Bought the one that said it was for the Ibiza and wasn't even close to fitting.
Any idea what I need?

I got the wipers from the dealer in the end, less than £30 for the aero ones which I didn't think was too bad

Better contact with the screen and less drag I think. They are a lot better than my old ones but could do with a clean

I get Bosch Wipers from Halfords - £11 on trade and they are the dogs titties.
Oil filter cap needs a 32mm socket - I bought a 32mm Hub Nut socket from halfords to undo it - saves the bother of trying to find the oldest, rustyest, biggest adjustable spanner. And you bound to find the 30mm one which JUST isnt big enough
Brake light bulbs I always get from Halfords, I'll get the part number next time im in there. Inside sidelight bulbs on the back are standard 501's.

No somebody broke it and couldn't be bothered to replace it so removed it completely. Sold the motor last week

Thank you Pow, will get one at lunch.
I bought the bosch ones in there originally but they don't fit the facelift
BTW, managed to sort out the brake light. There was a problem with the contact on the bulb

Oh sorry it is 36.
It's well worth it as you don't end up mashing the plastic cover.
PS. If you still wanna swap we could just change the casings and not the actualy bulbs/boards.
