Thanks,
I was refinishing my black wiper arms tonight and I became curious. I knew
I could count on you guys for the answer. It's this kind of
Stuff that could be included in a massive database before all of our gurus
move on, which I'm sure it is already, but which one?
I need to acquire a set of silver arms and have seen a couple of them with
built in airfoils, probably impossible to find, but if anybody has a pair,
I may have something cool to trade.

Thanks,A
I was refinishing my black wiper arms tonight and I became curious. I
knew I could count on you guys for the answer. It's this kind of
Stuff that could be included in a massive database before all of our
gurus
move on, which I'm sure it is already, but which one?
I need to acquire a set of silver arms and have seen a couple of them
with built in airfoils, probably impossible to find, but if anybody has
a pair, I may have something cool to trade.

Yes if you read the TSBs, one of them addresses switching a LH park
car to
RH park, if my memory is correct?
