Interesting thing is that each wiper came in its own shipping box. Each box was big enough to hold about 100 wipers.  |
I got the first Gigantor box. Wipers must be like Beta Fighting Fish, one box only or ELSE!!! This is fine right now because I was only going to install one for testing. Here is the stock driver side wiper :
Near the attachment point, the tufts were getting messed up.
Here is the new passenger side wiper :
It had "clean straight tufts" that were being pulled to the side because the passenger side wiper *is* close to the side.
I originally had two layers of tufts higher up, but they were all straight, so I switched to the "flush to the wiper" tuft tests that you see above.
When I get the second wiper I will repeat the test with all new wipers.
And .... it rained today. My old wiper didn't work too well, but the new one worked like a charm.
