    I was thinking about doing a single windshield wiper, like you would see on euros, or auto racing cars. Has anyone done it? And how would you do it?

    Yeah. That is what I meant. I wouldn't mind doing it the proper way... How did you do that, exactly?

    Retract that last statement. I see what you did there. :) I want it to be in the middle of the car. ;)

    you would have to do some major mod to the motor/assembly to get a large enough sweep if you want to wiper to sit at the bottom and still wipe the entire window though

    Here in the Netherlands it's a PUKE thing to do to your toyota, all VW Golf drivers (With caps and hanging in the middle of the car while driving) have this...

    If you do this to your celi.... :cry: :cry: :cry:

    And sorry for the last pic of the wintertoyota but it looks shitty as it is not even right angled up...no offence :)

    I prefer the look of that single wiper. To each his own. Looks like Mafix did a pretty awesome job of doing this... Looks good bro! What did you have to go through to do that? Like, is there a step by step how to, or something?

    Mafix his wiper looks more like the DTM one. Isn't it possible to use a big wiper like Mercedes has? That would surely improve the looks on a singlewiper job.

    had a single wiper on my 86....left 2 on the 88....personally I think it's much cleaner with 2....they don't sit in the middle of the window when they're not on...so....yeah..
