If I decide to remove my wipers does any one know if there is a cap that some one makes to put over the nut or has any good ideas to make it look clean? Thanks for any suggestions. |

I stole the rubber pieces off the legs of a folding chair to use as caps. |

Scott Curtis has a kit that holds the wipers along with the caps. Don't know the cost but send him an email. This message has been edited by CA Phil on 06-23-2005 at 12:50 PM |

Thinks Phil for the post above. I have been making a kit for over a year now. There is a carrying case that hold both wiper arms, each in there own sheath. There's a special made t-handle socket with a magnet in it to hold and turn the nut on and off while holding it so you can't loose it and it fits inside it's own sheath too. There's a pouch for holding the nuts and their covers while the wipers are off the car. The covers are a soft black vinyal that cover the post and the squirter. The bottom of the covers bell out so they slip inside the large holes in the windshield plenum. There's even a short instruction list in the inside flap of the cover for the case just in case you forget how it all works. The case easily stores behind the drivers seat or in the trunk. It really protects the wipers and holds everything ready in one place all the time. The price is 100.oo inc. shipping in the US. If you want one of these just send the check to: Scott Curtis(make ck. to me) 755 Vista Grande Ave. Los Altos, ca. 94024 Phone: 650-967-3609 Phone me for questions-leave a message if I'm not here and I'll get back to you a.s.a.p. NOTE: I do not sell the covers for the posts separately-They are really trick!!! Hope I helped, Obi-Wan |

Prowlers are looking a lot smoother without wipers. The view is better too. I use rain-x freequently, no problem if I catch rain on the Highway . If needed, I can put the wipers on in 5 minutes. But, usually, I do not drive in the rain... so no wipers are cool. |

Joe - no problem,,,,,,we are here to try to help each other. We learn as we go! Get rid of the wiper arms,,,,,while at it,,,,remove those nasty sun visors as well. That is why they make 'sun glasses' |
