Vacuum wipers
 

I purchased a blade and arm from Snyders. I have a 30 coupe with a vacuum motor, the photo below shows both. How do I manipulate these to get them together? Are they the correct items. Thanks.

tom you shouldn't have to bend anything and they do have a little side --side play.

Thanks Mitch, that second picture did it for me...I wasn't seeing how it was going on till I saw that you started it upside down. Arm still seems a little wide producing some sloppy movements...but won't know for sure till I get everything installed. Thanks for your imput. Tom

You're not driving in the rain anyway.
