Not that I know of, well not anything by a popular make as far as I can see. There are kits for other Pugs but I've not seen one for the 206, maybe due to its large windscreen.

Yeah I heard that too. It obscures the frontal vision apprantly, probably the same law applies to sunstrips.
If the wiper goes under the bonnet though, thats okay.

The wipers work the opposite way because they are set up for Left Hand Drive cars. It looks as if Peugeot didn't want to spend money tooling for Right Hand Drive?

Not as simple as that for the 206 though, if you look at the top of the bonnet it is shaped for the wipers, so not only would they have to change the wipers but also make a whole new bonnet, so it would probably be more bother than its worth (for them!)

It does pee me off that when you use the wipers, after they have gone up and are on the way back down the wiper flicks water over the drivers side of the windscreen, so you have to let them wipe off the water about 3-4 more times afterwards... where as with a single blade you wouldnt have that problem, or with right hand drive wipers neither.

There is a single wiper kit in the demon tweeks catalogue that is available for the 206 might buy it and see if its any good. They are not illegal and it can be parked in the centre of the windscreen or in normal position
