Wipers

[DIY BBQ]

Today I took out the car and decided to turn on the wipers, not really sure why but the went crazy and stopped in the middle of the window. A little tinkering and I got them back in place. Since I live in Southern California and will not be driving in the 10 days of rain a year we get I think I am going to take the arms off. In the past I have seen small caps on the wiper (bolt where arm connects) with a cap on them. Does anyone know where I can get these?

I think you're describing wiper nut covers, little bullet shaped caps that cover the wiper shaft. If so, any street rod retailer will have them in a few sizes. Most are chrome, but you can paint them black so they don't stand out so much. An example:

I would keep on the wipers in case you hit a rain scenario. One of your wiper controllers may be bad and needs to be replaced

I took the wipers off and capped the post with vacuum caps to cover the post. Gives the post a finished look and they are already black! Great idea on mustangs but not vipers. The post are not evenly aligned and the passenger side post goes off into a funny direction. Looks like ******* on a bad boob job The wipers are going back on.

One of your wiper motors have gone bad. Typically, one will work correctly, the other works erratically. It's weird because normally you would assume the one working erratically is the one that needs to be replaced, but in actuality it is the that looks normal.
