This video shows how to change the wiper arm on a Volkswagen Golf V: start by removing the protective cap from the wiper nut; then remove the wiper arms; a special tool is used here, but a common screwdriver can also be used. You can find the wiper arms, for example, on auto-doc.it with the code 99300106602 at a price of £6.50 each plus £9.95 for shipping.

Reinstall the wiper arms, treating the fastening elements with a product to prevent excessive rust; do the same for the rear wiper, applying copper grease well before refitting the wiper.
