Ok now I've never really been a fan of the mono-wiper on any car, particularly because it sticks up over the windshield all the time, but I got to thinking the other day. It was raining and I was behind a Suburban (or a Yukon, i dunno but they're the same damn thing) and watched it's rear wiper. The wiper lays horizontal while not used, but the motor moves it up when it is turned on, then moves the wiper to wipe the whole back window. Would it be a feasible idea for those who want the mono-wiper without it in their face to get one of these motors to mount for the windshield of our car? The wiper would lay in the stock position while not used, but when turned on move up to about where a normal mono-wiper sits then wipe the whole windshield

eh just a pondering

I wouldn't think it'd be worth the effort personally...what's so cool about having just one wiper? wink.gif

Studies show mono-wiper gives the car 5 more HP.


no but seriously, I love how they look on the DTM cars.

a guy on my probetalk forum used a Jaguar or Mercedes wiper motor on his probe.
when not in use it stay horizontal like its suppose to. when in use is sweeps the whole windshield.
