Not what was expected but good design

It was not clear from the picture that it was the old pin system. I would like her to replace it with a newer clip but other than that everything was fine, the clip on the clasps seemed to work fine.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • The list will be long.

Rusts in 2 years

Rusts too quickly. The original factory OEM guns lasted 20 years. These replacements lasted 2. One would think they would at least be painted with more durable paint. I will try another company on this tour.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Nothing here

Pretty good, but a small problem with the installation tolerance.

One of the two wiper arms had a slight fit where it attaches to the wiper gearbox but they fit. I later replaced the wiper gear on this side with a Dorman replacement and encountered the same installation problem, but it worked.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Safety

Works perfectly, did not solve the problem with the pass.

These wiper arms worked without any problems, the reason I only gave it four stars was because they didn't solve my bouncing problem I had with the original wiper arms. It seems like the spring tension on these arms isn't strong enough to keep the wiper blades from slipping.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
