Well thanks guys, got them off yesterday..went to town..was driving home down the 401 and guess what mother nature does? Has a lightning storm! Of coruse all that means is you gotta drive faster to get the water off the window or follow sumones tail lights.

Just throw on some rainX as a temp solution.

There are 3 AE92 coupes at Standard, just grab a new wipper.

AE92 wiper arms are held by 2 philip screws.....and almost 90% of em out there are rusted on.....the only way to take them off is heat of the area around the screw and gentally unscrew it.....once they snap.....you gotta either drill and it and retap or get a brand new pair of vise grip and grab the broken screw out.... done so many of them at work and they are pain in the ass for free charge.
