Windshield Wiper

[memory-x]

hello, i was wondering if anyone could give me a breif description on how to do the one wiper mod, i have seen them here and there, and looked at one up close in the city this weekend and noticed it used the passenger wiper, all the ones i have seen, the wiper is always stoped between the bottom and top of passenger side, any info would be greatly apperciated, thanks

take off the driver side. and put the passenger one so it starts in the middle of the windshield. Thats how mine was, just because i needed to get the rod which moves BOTH wipers.


PS: in the rain it will suck. And all the time its a big wiper in your field if vision. Ticket material

-feels like a dumbass- , i replace windshields and crap at our shop, and sometimes put the wipers back on to high or low, never even thought about that, i was just wondering how, , guess i thought to hard about it

They were cool on the Scirocco, the original Isuzu Impulse, and a couple of Mercedes. Oh, and all the ones at LeMans. But since then, a certain undesired element seems to have tried the idea on cars that didn't really have the engineering behind the idea, and they just don't work all that well.

As a fascinating side note, Mercedes did numerous studies in the seventies to find a better way of dealing with rain: compressed air, hydrosonic tricks, vibration, and other stuff. They found out nothing worked so well on cars as windshield wipers.

cool info


That RainX works VERY WELL tho. helps allot.

and dont do that.... like the others said, it doesnt do anything, it looks funny, and is ineffeciant, and when it causes an accident, not worth it.

Much agreed. They also make a washer additive now that helps a fair bit.
