Hey guys what u think of removing both front windscreen wipers and replacing a bit big one in the middle of where both were??? Is it easy and has anyone done it before???
The Merc ones don't just go in a single arc like their twin wiper brothers... They stretch out to reach close to the edges of the windscreen and then retract when they are headed towards the top of the windscreen giving a nice field of view.
A Single Big wiper in the middle of normal origin would be limited to the height of your windscreen, thus it would not be sufficient to reach across and clear the drivers view totally. Unless you can come up with something ingenious like the above method .
I wanted to do this also, but gave up because its too much f#$*ing around. If you don't want to pay millions and get one off a merc, you can try and pull one off a Subaru Vortex. They came with a one wiper also.
I am sure there is a wrecker out there with a vortex in its midst
