wiper arm replacement

My wipers aren't wiping very well. Leaving skid marks on the windscreen and missing large areas entirely, despite a new set of blades.

I think the wiper arms themselves are a bit loose and worn. Time for replacement.

Before I ring Porsche for some expensive OEM wiper arms, anyone know whether there are in fact suitable generic replacements?

I do not know, but note that RHD cars use specific wipers!

Found my own answer. Bosche BBA550, or BBE550. The BBE series is metal rail-like design. BBA is more plastic, and more contemporary. BBA is double the price but well worth it. Now my wipers are noise and streak free!
