Review on Dorman 42601 HELP! Windshield Wiper Arm by Richard Ahmar

Revainrating 3 out of 5

You need an adapter to attach the blade to your hand.

Same cheap composite as the original, no complaints. About the same shape. My 1994 Dodge Caravan SE was a little different. The end of my original was bent into a U-shape and fit right into any car dealership's knife. The new one doesn't have a U-shape at the end but is a pin/wave style cylinder at the end that runs parallel to the rear window. The shank is as thick as the blade frame and has a notch in the middle. I think there is an adapter that will make it work, but I don't know how much it costs yet. A new rear wiper arm will cost around $80 to $100 from a dealer. I found this online for $20, so if the adapter is under $50-60 I'm spot on. I will update this when I review the adapter.
