Re: windshield wiper arms

Make sure that when you turned your wipers off that they had reached the lowest point before they start the cycle again...then set the arms on the posts with the blades sitting 1" - 2" from the wind-shield rubber. I could probably do with taking my own advice here and set my DS a bit lower.
