Funny thing is.......I can't put them on right now. Or at least run them. Before I ever put wipers on a new build I always cycle the motor with the switch to make sure the shafts are in the correct starting position. Well, when I cycled mine yesterday I noticed the they would be pushing the wipers DOWN into the cowl and not up when I turned them on. Hindsight...........When I rotated the wiper motor due to the recessed firewall, I did not swap the arm on the shaft on the motor 180 degrees. So basically they are stowing in the up position instead of the regular down position. Easy fix in a now very difficult and small location to get to. So for now it will be lots of Rain-X and hope for no hard rain if on a long trip.

I just picked up a pair at O'reilly's, also in stock. I got curious, so I check on the fit for a gen 1 Mustang. Sure enough, it's the same part number. So that explains why they keep the "Classic" blades that fit our trucks in stock.

Anyone else use any of that new fangled nano technology water Repellent? I used Aquapel - polishes the glass - makes it amazingly smooth. Supposed to last 40,000 times longer (kidding) than rain-x - it is supposed to last longer though. During a steady light rain I can use an interment setting instead of having the wipers on.
