Vette(s): 1985 Corvette Coupe Red on Red RHD Z51
Hello folks,
                 
I am trying to figure out how my wiper arms fit my 85 coupe and need a few photo's of the wipers actually on the car,mine came in a box with all the windscreen trim and other bits and pieces,I have had a new screen fitted and neither arm seems to sit properly in the park position.
Any help would be welcome.

Regards Billy

I may have some other pics, but I'll have to dig. THis doesn't really show very much.... The driver side wiper goes on the bottom, with the pass side over it, when at rest....if that helps. I also have the service manual that may have a diagram/pic...I'll check when I get home later this evening.

as joel said the drivers is on the bottom. are the wipers that you got in the box standard wipers? i tried a different style wiper and could not use them because the body of them was a littile bigger than the normal ones. kept getting caught on the hood. there is an adjustment for the travel but is a little tricky. would only go there if you have to.

try all the normal vendors or ebay. if none of them have it you may have to go to a junkyard. let me check as the donor car for my 90 when it was hit was an 85. may have it on there.
