Considering Wiper Arm Swap
#21
I installed the DI wiper arms today after work... While still in my tie and dress shirt... Simple installation. The kit from Atlantic British comes with everything you need. New Arms, New Blades, New Nuts and the little plastic covers that dress up the end of the arm by covering the nut.
I also installed a new DII factory rear blade.
Probably took me 15 minutes total, and that included the time to get out the tools.
The blades that come with the kit are significantly shorter than the stock DII blades (maybe an inch each direction), but I think I can install a longer blade on the arms without any interference issues. I will probably go get a set of winter blades that are a little longer and check them out. I can already tell that they exert more downward pressure on the windshield than the DII arms, so I think I'm going to like this swap.
