P500 Manual wiper and 2nd Battery

[trigger]

Hi folks...finally got the wiper installed...way too long so I cut it, overlapped the two arms, and reattached them with rivets. Overlapped them about 1.5 - 2 inches or so. For $15 off Amazon it works great! Use a hole in one of the windshield clamps- just had to widen it out to 1/2 inch like someone above mentioned. Might get another one. I've included a pic of the wiper arm - and a few others! Now, just trying to find how and where to install a second battery - can't use under the hood as I have a storage container there!

Try under the drivers seat for that second battery. I think someone above did a thread on that too. 🤔

I basically did the same install as trigger using the EMP’s. The wiper arm is 11” long and blade is 16”. I have the OEM hard coat flip out windscreen and the blade clears the bottom bend by four inches.
The wiper arms come with the last couple of inches bent down and too the left. That works great on the drivers side, but I didn’t like the way it held the blade on the passenger side. The outside of the blade stuck down too much. So I cut a small v into the arm at the bend and bent it in so it was straight while still maintaining the downward angle and welded it. It now holds the blade up and straighter than before. They overlap by a couple of inches.

One arm straightened.

I might just move mine up @trigger style. Need to find his his how to thread. Wiper handles are a bit too close to the OEM windshield pop outs.

Link to his how to is on previous page of this post. The only difference I did was straighten that one wiper arm.
Here’s how my handles are positioned when wipers are up. Lots of room to grab and in line with other parts so they don’t bother your eye line out the windscreen.

All done, a very quick job.
