Rusty wiper arms

[RipperXX]

The New TSi I am hr's away from buying has some rust actuly a good bit of rust on the windshield wiper arms, can you get replacements at Auto Zone, Advance, NAPA etc?

Wiper arms are fairly common and easy to replace,,,they should have 'em available, but they might have to order em.

Well I know there common, but I was just wondering if anyone knew of a parts store that carried them? Eh guess I will just go to all of them, maybe one will have them in stock then.. I hate ordering shit and waiting 3 days to get it...

Just sand and paint. I did that to try it out, since mine were faded and a little rusty. They look better if you give them a flat black look rather than a glossy look.

I agree, Sand and paint, save every cent you have because DSMs require every cent you have. But yet I just bought my 5th one I would hate to see what a dealer would charge for a set anyways. My cheap ass still used a prop rod or a vice grip to hol dup my hatch.
