Quick Tip for Wipers

[motofabio]

Keeping the wipers off the glass while not in use (parked) will greatly extend the wiper life. You can buy stand-offs, or cut a section of a $1 pool noodle to do the same thing. Pool noodles - they aren’t just for slide corners!

While you're doing the excellent suggestion from the op, consider the above while you're at it.

Scratch that. The pool noodles compressed over a few days and the wipers were back on the glass. So I cut and notched a section of ABS I had in the corner of the garage. That worked perfectly.

I use old tennis balls between the wiper arms and the windshield. I walk a lot and have been able to find them for free whilst out an about.

I just flip them out and turn the blade part out.
