Question Windshield wipers?

Anyone deleting their windshield wipers and have some nice wiper post covers? I am thinking about taking off my wipers but not finding many options to cover up the wiper posts.

Any info and pics would be great. Thanks!

My Challenger came with vinyl caps over the posts. I think they look clean. They simply slip snugly over the posts. I didn't buy them, but would look for them at HD, a small hardware store, or maybe on E-Bay.
I didn't measure, but they look maybe 5/8" diameter to me.



Hope that helps.

Bill

Sorry to side track but Bill, is your Challenger the grey one that Roadster Shop built? ...if not, do you have any photos or a link to a build thread?

Are you removing the wipers because you want to clean up the firewall or do you want to remove the wiper arms for some reason.

If you want to clean up the firewall take a look at the RainGear wiper system. Simple to install and moves the wiper motor inside the air box.

Not as much for the firewall, I just never have it in the rain and id rather not have wipers blocking my view through the windshield. Plus I think it looks cleaner.
