    EXT: Mercedes-Style Wipers (single wiper)

    ok.. this is realllllly easy, and im shure some of u have either done this, heard about it.. or dont like it.. lol.. what youre pretty much doing is makin it so you are only using one wiper blade for your whole windshield

    1. Remove driver side winshield wiper by removing that little nut that is on the bottom of it, it takes a little elbow grease to remove it, well mine was a pain to get off, lol
    2. do the same for the passanger side but all youre doing is adjusting the wiper on youre windshield further up from the stock posistion, it takes adjusting to get it to go to stop at the right point on youre windshield.
    3. Tighten the nut back on, and turn on ur blades..if it goes to far, jus adjust it back a bit, if it doesnt go far enough, move it further up.

    Pretty easy to do this diy.. I thought it was pretty cool looking, allthough you do not get as much rain of youre windshield, but I myself can see just fine!

              Yeah, its a perfectly good DIY. If its not your style, then dont do it. Everyone has theyre own tastes
              And I think you can take off the wipers easier. After you remove the nut, fold the wiper out, so it isnt touching the windshield, and it should come off hella easy....i know mine did.

                uh...yeah ghettofied one up wiper.
                If your gonna do the conversion you can find the Mercedes model (like what Im gonna do) and use the motor from that car and intergrate in to the cb7. simple as that.

                        how is this the mercedes style single wiper when the mercedes style single wiper actually doesnt rest half way up the windshield? also, the mercedes wiper covers the entire windhsield and extends out a little to cover more of the windshield than less of the windshield. im not hating, im just pointing out flaws int he comparison. also, this same thing can be found on other cars such as some ferrari's, so its unfair to call it the mercedes style wiper, when other cars have it too, that is unless of course, mercedes did it first.
                        regardless, it should be renamed the goofy uni wiper weight reduction rice mod. that is all.
