Awl --
Between the telescoping covers being perty banged up in places, and the wipers having deteriorated on their own, most are gone. These covers (fadal 3016) are pretty heavy-duty gauge SS, very 'spensive.
Inyone improv their own wipers? I have idears on how to do it -- some kind spring steel, pressing down nylon or sumpn at the lip of each telescoping section -- but wondering if there is a slamdunk way to do it.
Am I killing the machine without the wipers? On the covers I've taken off, s*it appeared pretty pristine... but who knows later on....
Oh, just replacing the wipers oem?? Proly water under the bridge with all the heating/banging out I've had to do, and even in the best scenario, proly not a great solution, given that I wadn't overly impressed with that part of the construction to begin with. For that amount of money, some kind of spring-loaded ditty shoulda been possible....
In my ideal diy solution, I'd be able to change the wipers outright, every 6 mos or so. The Q is, getting it done....
Heh, mebbe a long windshield wiper, held in place somehow?? I could then let my car mechanic replace them.... LOL!!
