Got my windshield wipers today and was looking at installing them the same way trigger did ....was wondering if you had to drill out the clamps that hold the windshield

 

[trigger]

You'll have to drill a 1/2" hole through the backside of the plastic bracket of the clamp. The part that has the recessed nut carved into it.

 

[dls1966]

Yup That's what I thought thanks for the info

I got the wipers installed with no problems thanks once again to trigger for the excellent idea and the tips to make the install so easy

Dang it you guys...... I just can’t keep up with the pace of mods, let a lone even ride this fall, just too busy at work.
Great job Trigger, (as usual) so I’m thinking your window is hardened polycarbonate yes? You pack a bottle of soapy water or gonna install e-pump and squirters? I have a section of hardened Polycarbonate on mine and the difference between it and the non is very noticeable in terms of scratches. I typically use a foam aerosol that beads water to run off (just beyond middle age moment don’t recall brand) and wipe down with cloth. I think a hand wiper is the call as an E one would scratch the window in no time I’m thinking.

Again nice job man.

Triggers is the cool one mine is the one with the gizmo...its a defroster windshield tends to fog up in the cold

Thanks J. Yeah, it's the hardened one and I do carry a squirt bottle of soapy water. I should hit mine with some Rain X or something too.

Keerap that’s the the stuff Trigger ugh sigh..... RainX... yeesh. I get it in foam aerosol and also yellow pray bottle works great on polycarbonate, glass too.

Trigger’s setting a record of mods and money spent on mods. If your intent is to keep up with him you’d better get a second mortgage on your house.

Apologies dls1966 and Trigger, both you guys have such nice rigs....sorry for the mix up.
Defroster nice can you ‘splain how it works? I mean I know it defrosts but electric heat or engine heat?
Thanks,
