...can't wait for it to rain. Wait a minute, that sounds weird...

Note that my passenger side wiper lies fairly flat on the outboard edge.

 

Man - you are a great addition to the board !!





willing to share, posting pics and showing people your wonderful car and the little things you do to keep it in great shape!!!!



Thanks!!


PS, where did you pick them up, what was the aprox cost and do you have the item numbers? - how long to install
if you feel like sharing that-

 

Ed, you want him to come over and install them for you too?




Hi Ed!

 

you will enjoy them...much better than the traditional wipers....now if you add rainex???

 

no- no Tim...

well....

SURE!! (if he wouldn't mind)


I thought the info might be useful to some of the LURKERS!!

 

Yeah, good job and they look great. Mine fit similar, and they do look so much better than the old style.

For installation, it only took me a couple minutes after I jacked up the car and removed the wheels.

 

After it rains, let us know how the passenger side works. I've heard the Bosch doesn't have the same contour as OEM and may miss a spot or two.

 

Type slower, I am trying to read this and I read really slow....


OK




Jack up the car........









remove what ?












do I jack it up by the wipers ???

 

It works well...it's heavy rubber and after it sits there for a few days will bend to the windshield contour

 

I got them at the local Advance Auto store around the corner of all places. Bosch 422A for drivers side and 422B for passenger side. I was impressed that the sales person knew there was a R and L with out looking - I would never have even guessed. They were a little spendy - 22 bucks A-piece But they actually look very great on the car and almost like the car was designed around them! I will wait and get one for my - gulp - rear wiper As for installation, after I got the wheels off and lug nuts wire brushed and repainted it only took about 2 minutes a side - they go on snuggly and the major time was spent trying to figure out how to get them out of the box

Some of us find it beneficial to have the passenger side wiper not work so well, able to drive faster with the wife along on a rainy day......

 

hahaha -

I have a short wife, she cant see out the windshield anyhow....she says all she sees are tree tops

 

Lol... +1... took my wife to her first C&C at Irvine Spectrum this morning... actually my first C&C and the first time I've been in a caravan (four 911s, go figure)... there were two 997 C2Ss with us (or better, I was "with" two 997 C2Ss), both outfitted with a variety of track goodies... not that it was hard to keep up on the I5 heading north, but... is there a windshield wiper that can obscure the speedometer from the passenger seat??? (man that car rides nice at 85+ [that's as fast as I'm willing to admit on a public road]...)
