Not exactly what I did with my ZT.......but placed a cheeky little bid on someone else's ZT 190+ on the bay of E.....
And I can't even drive the cars I've got at the moment....I must be mad. |

Only a small job, but very satisfying. Removed wiper arms, rubbed down to remove the rust stains from the pivot points, primed and finished with 'Rust-oleum' matt black, they look brand new now!

Wipers are easy to remove, two nuts 15mm, then grip tight a wiggle and a shake and they are off.
With the cap and nut off press down on the arm it can sometimes help release the alloy wedge. 1 If that does not work close the bonnet not fully just on it's catch then get your fingers under the arm wiggle & shake the arm should come loose 2 3 Replace with the refurbished ones or refurbish the ones taken off. 4 5

I always leave the nut on a couple of threads until I loosen the wedge ! Have known people ping them into the engine bay |
