indicator arm

[plod]

Where's the cheapest place to pick up an indicator arm?

Just bought a brand new radio control arm, and also a brand new wiper control arm with trip function, and being a tart, I think i've got to change the indicator arm...I gotta, I just gotta

Seen some on the bay for about £40 - is this a good price??

Thought about asking on here if anyone has a decent one, but think for that price i'd be better off with a new one
Especially as my car has this habit of the the clicking sound of the indicator coming on occassionally, and a quick wiggle with the arm usually cures it, so hopefully, a new arm will cure this at the same time.

I'd buy a new one to be honest! The groove in the cancelling mechanism wears (which you can repair with epoxy).
It was a while back now but I think £40 was the going rate from the stealer. Don't quote me on that though!

Bloody 'ell Steve, I stand corrected!
Edit: I thought the D8/D9 non com2000 stalks were the same item... Obviously not.

I did too but it didn't come up when I searched for all models. The difference is probably something really technical like a blob of paint somewhere

Blimey, how many different versions do they have?

[plod]

Just been and looked at my arm, hoping to spot relative codes, before grand prix starts, but none relate to those above

I have

Nice one

So if I buy 625368 off ebay for £40 posted, all is good!

[plod]

Now found one for £36.98 posted for the 625368, so think i'll order that one.

[plod]

Ordered the one for £29.99 plus £6.99 postage yesterday and today they email me asking for my Vin so they can confirm it's correct.
I was at work, so the misses emails them back, and when I get home I have an email saying, yes, you ordered the correct item for your car - YES I bloody know, I did the research including asking you guys !!!!

Just got to figure out the radio control arm now.

Some sites say there is one for the entire production years - both D8 and D9 - but from what I can tell, the D8 is plug is mounted under the column and has a shorter wire, whreas the D9 has a longer wire and heads down towards the fuse box - feel free to correct me if wrong?
And the plug has 4 holes for the connections and 3 are used, but it's a different 3 !!

I found this out when plugged new one in and had no control from the stalk at all.

On my car the wiring went white, red, blue, and the new one went blue, red, white.
I assumed the circuit board would be the same, so as the wiring was too long on the new one, and couldn't get the plugs apart, cut the plugs off and connected my old plug to the new stalk, but went white to blue, red to red, and blue to white.
I tried this tonight, and had all the controls working except the volume which altered the frequency of the radio ( yes the frequency option altered the frequency as well )
Obviously the circuit board must be different.
I could take the 2 stalks apart and check out the circuit board, but common sense just tells me to connect the relavant colours to their counterparts and try again.
I guess i've got time as it could be a couple of days for the indicator stalk to arrive anyway.
Went round a mate's as had my soldering iron stolen earlier in the year and haven't replaced it yet, to do the soldering of the wires together, and will just pop round his again tomorrow and try out moving the wires.
