Anyone know where I can find caps to go on my bolts after I take the wipers off?

I deleted mine too since I NEVER drive her in the rain and also took out the washer bottle, I use black vinyl or rubber vacuum caps, just look around for the bigger size, fyi.

I used black rubber vacuum caps that I had laying around for mine as well, although only to cover and protect the threads

You guys remember the size of the caps by chance?

couldn't tell ya, like I said I found them laying around on my workbench from a previous project. they are pretty small though, I can snap a pic when I get home if you want

That'd be great if you wouldn't mind!

That's funny!! I'm looking more along the lines of the whole thing. But I think that will definitely work in the meantime! Thanks!

Why not yank the entire wiper mechanism? You could probably find a small grommet/plug kit that has no hole in the center and raised lips so it stays put in the opening.

That's what I did. Yanked the whole thing.

I try not to drive my car in the rain, but there have been times I have gotten caught in a freak downpour and have had to throw a wiper on real quick. so I keep my drivers side wiper in the hatch just in case

You guys are doing it wrong, lol....

I totally do not understand removing the wipers unless you have some sort of monster intake that requires the space the wiper mechanism takes up. If you're leaving the mechanism in place, then why take them off?

for me it about looks, I think it looks a lot cleaner without the wipers. car is not my daily driver and I try not to drive it in the rain so I removed them. I keep the drivers side wiper in the hatch just incase though

exactly, I drive my car like 8 times a year and NEVER in any rain.

I want to remove mine but need them for inspection purposes

Where I live, they just did away with yearly inspection stickers, no sticker, no "inspection", no worries

I toss mine back on the day of inspection, then they come off as soon as I get home. another reason why I keep the wiper mechanism

lucky! at least in my state they aren't as strict with pre OBDII cars, I don't have emissions check. just plug it in and if no codes, good to go.
