Help!

 ·  Posted: 29.04.2023  ·  #1
I have a 1995 Fiat Ducato. The wiper motor has failed and I’ve been able to find a replacement motor. I’ve taken the grill off at the bottom of the windscreen and it’s no surprise, given how notoriously leaky this generation of Fiat is, to find the metal bar that supports the grill has disintegrated. Does anyone know what the correct name for this part is? Is there any chance of finding a replacement? If so, does anyone have any ideas where I can source one from? Any help and advice greatly appreciated. I’ll attach photos. The red arrows indicate where the remains of the bar is/where it should be.

Try these guys, they are very helpful and knowledgeable, I haven’t looked to see if they have your part but give them a ring and if they haven’t got it they may point you in the right direction

They don’t seem to have one on their website, but I’ve sent them an email. Would you have any idea what the part is called? 🤞🏼🤞🏼

It shouldn't be too difficult for metal shop to make you a new one, could probably be cheeper
Have you someone who dose light engineering near you..
JJF may know what it called, and maybe make one.

It’s called a scuttle support rail and is a dealer part only.
As others have said, quite easy to fabricate up in the workshop.
