  • Wiper Blades? WTF,,,

    So I went into the store the other day and picked up a set of michilen wiper blades for my car. Well needless to say they didn't really fit... Lol I got them to work after about 30 minutes of messing around, but only work about 40% of the windshield, and are NOT mounted properly in any sense.

    What blades work on our cars besides the $40 pile of delco ****s...

    24" regular Ancos. Less than $5 each.
    \'00 f-bird 3.8 M5 coupe, pewter metallic<br />Torsen LSD, Pro 5.0 shifter, Spec stage 1 clutch, Y87 muffler, aftermarket stereo<br />-more fun than the Oldsmobile it replaced...

      I don't know the brand that I got, but I bought them at Wallmart and they fit great!

          98 -00 have a different wiper arm then the 93-97 that is why you have no problems with them wiper blades.

              That's why I changed to 98+ arms on my 96.

                I had a big problem finding wiperblades for my 95 camaro also. The only place in town that had them in stock was NAPA besides from a dealer. The reason they are so hard to find is they are backwords from regular blades and most places don't sell them. The size that fit for me was 60-024-9R

                      Was it as simple as slapping on the 98+ arms or did you have to do the whole assembly? Besides the pain to find good blades for the 93-97 they have scratched my windshield twice now. I hate them [img]graemlins/twak.gif[/img]

                        Yes, but pulling them off is a royal PIA. However, there is a tool which easily removes them - which I had to use finally.
