Wow great information guys, I called My Rover dealer and yup, they sure have them. The funny thing is that they sell them in pairs, even though I only have one rear wiper arm on my Rover... So perfect! Now I am picking parts for both my cars in one place!!! :-D

Landrover Part number PRC8253 $6.99 each pair

Just received a pair of the Rover OEM PRC 8253 covers from Atlantic British (aka Roverparts.com) in the US. $6.95 each, perfect!

www.roverparts.com/Parts/PRC8253G

They also carry a non-OEM version for $5.95 each.

BTW - they included a 10% off discount code (NEXT10) good till 10/31/2015...

This one is a good candidate for a 3D printed part.

The old one I took off literally crumbled into a dozen pieces. I wonder if giving the new ones a good surface layer of black plastidip would add some reinforcement and protection.
