The LWB is about four inches longer and that length is added behind the B-pillar, so it is evident in the rear doors. The attached images show the door cards for a SWB and LWB model. If you look to the left of the speaker grill in the door release handle, you'll see the extra width to the edge. You'll also see some extra fitment holes along the top where the trim piece goes. It's much easier to spot the difference on the D3 model.

Hi
Managed to sort the washer fluid warning light - was not hard / air box out headlight out loosened the reservoir and wiggled the pump out The only thing now is fluid is now leaking from the grommets when I’ve inserted the new pump It’s not original - it’s meyle branding Is there a way of just buying these grommets separately? I did try adding rubber ring around to make a better seal but no luck Thanks

The grommets always leak when you disturb them. Its become routine for me to replace the grommets when replacing the pump as they hardly ever seal up again.

Definitely did not push them in as took the pump out again to change
The top smaller grommet I noticed only leaked when the whole part was inserted so started fiddling with the positioning but no luck How do I get some or where from? Thanks

Part number for the large grommet (x2) is 431955465A
Part number for the small grommet is 443955465 Decided to do mine since I had the front end off.

So awhile back I changed the washer fluid pump to a meyle pump and all was fine apart from the grommets which I have ordered - I haven’t used the washers in the last few weeks as not driven much. Was about to change the grommets but realised only the headlight washer is working and not the screen washer
Is that because not enough fluid in? Or the pump?because the grommets are leaking there’s only enough fluid until below? Just wanted advise before I remove everything so I can do it all at once Thanks
