Solve Your Wiper Problem

Post by dasein »

If you, like me, can't find an adapter for your JDM wipers:

Go to a parts store. Order Bosch #41919 19" Excel wipers. Jobber price was around $15 at Lordco (but list is $30!) They contain a "QX" adaptor.

Put the adapter on your blade. It is not an exact fit, but will go on without modification. The bayonet does not fit into the middle hole, so the adapter will flex slightly, but no worries. Dremmel it out a bit if you require a perfect fit. You will need a #1 Philips screwdriver to install the adapter..

Buy a set of 24" blades that work with a 9mm hook type attachment. Almost any blade, in other words.

PM me, and I may buy the 19" blades from you if you like.

I have not been able to find a 24 inch blade with an adapter that works out of the box.

Found an adaptor at store called "Parts Source" - http://www.partssource.ca
Part # 8024 - screws right on to the end of the arm. I believe it has a 9mm hook, that fits most wipers.

The store GAVE me the adaptors when I purchased Trico 26" wiper blades. Blades were $26 each. Not a cheap solution, but after visiting many auto parts stores, I was willing to dole out a little more cash.
