Not for Honda Accord 2003-2007

If you have a 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 or 2007 Honda Accord these parts will not fit you. They will work, but they aren't tight and the link arm will pop off and flex causing the wipers to get out of alignment. Use 49447, there is a set of four in the pack that will work, they will be hard to come by, soak them in boiling water for a minute then insert. Unless you're very coordinated, you'll probably need two people, one squeezing them with pliers and the other poking into the remaining clampsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Some Cons

2010 GMC Terrain The main wiper connection to the motor drive has come loose. I ordered them to replace the "worn out" bushings. Identical to the original connection sockets, but were ultimately not corrected. The lever fell off again almost immediately after using the wipers. Tried a few modifications but all failed but ended up buying universal kit 49447 and used larger bushings. It's a little tricky to install (I used a flat head screwdriver) but they hold the ball joint better than theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent Price
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Difficult to install but works great

I bought these to mount the wiper arm on my wife's 2005 Nissan Murano. Revane says they don't fit, but I can assure you they do. Nissan seems to have used these bushings on many cars in the 2000-2015 range, possibly others. Save over $100 on an all new wiper arm linkage and buy these instead! I thought I could replace it without removing the linkage from the car, but the bushing in the metal linkage is so tight you can never do it. I found it easiest to use two deep hole bushings and a viseโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Good but not great

I've seen several reviews commenting on their performance on various Subaru, I have a 1998 Legacy Outback and was hoping they would work as there was noticeable play in the connection. I took off the windshield wipers and hood, tried to pull out the motor and found that the bushing that connects the motor to the passenger joint was damaged. I ordered two packs and need four total if I swap out the kit. I've found that they don't work with this year's Subaru model and the online catalog saysโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • Compatibility
