All I did today was wash it and drive it. I deleted the passenger-side wiper and replaced the blade on the driver side.
I've already seen some early water-cooled Volkswagens, not just Passat/Dasher, converted to single-arm wipers. Weight savings are roughly negligible, but it still leads to a minor aerodynamic improvement, especially when set to stand up while not in use.
