Windshield Wipers

[Monesq]

Had my windshield replaced today, Diamond Autoglass. Very Nice people, nice tech and free Omaha Steaks!!! :cowboy:

As I was about to park the Ty in the garage - I noticed that he failed to replace the wiper arms and windshield wipers!! :steamer:

I chased after him but I could not find him. I called Diamond and to make along story short, he placed the wipers on TOP of his van and now he can't find them! :shoot:

My question is this, are the wiper arms for a 1993 Ty the same as for a Jimmy? Diamond had to order them from a dealer and it will take at least a week. Luckily, I drove down my street and found the driver's-side wiper, banged up, but it works, so I can drive in case it rains.

Thanks, that puts my mind at ease. Hopefully the dealer does not mess up the order.

Look at it this way....you'll be gettng new wiper blades, thus reducing the risk of scratching your new windshield vs using the old ones:rotf: . Due to bad blades we have a nice arch shaped scratch on our windshield :rant:

Re: Windshield Wipers

how did he remove them (or more importantly, how do I remove them?)

When mine goe from ledft to right (return wipe) the right hand one bounces. Can I fix that easily or do I need new blades? These are new incidentally.

cheers,

Mark

I was lucky the windshield guy left a tool that does the trick.
