they are up.

**XboxHacka** · 11-20-2006, 03:09 AM

dose the part # with the blade come with this part

**Silfox** · 11-20-2006, 11:26 AM

It should. All the ones Ive seen do at least.

**LornesBored** · 11-20-2006, 04:04 PM

I haven't taken mine apart yet, i never ever use it so no point in replcaing it, so I cant help yu out in this question!

**gemiller** · 11-21-2006, 10:08 AM

Does it wipe the whole way to the top? On the stock wiper it doesn't seem to wipe the whole length of the wiper, i guess the wiper i bought doesnt flex enough, does this wipe the whole length? It definately looks badass though!

**migiski** · 12-24-2006, 01:30 AM

can this be done to a sedan????

**2focusd** · 12-24-2006, 11:49 AM

A sedan doesn't have a rear wiper, so I don't see why you'd wanna add a random blade back there

**LornesBored** · 12-24-2006, 01:36 PM

if you can somehow wire up the motor, and get the switch workin, I dont see why you couldn't add it to the sedan, will require a lot of drilling / glass work

**Focusfre4k** · 12-24-2006, 10:07 PM

your video kicks ass

**LornesBored** · 12-24-2006, 10:10 PM

^^

love it!

**glowboi87** · 03-28-2008, 01:52 AM

new pics???

**ZX3mod** · 03-28-2008, 06:39 AM

This is an incredibly interesting wiper discussion.

When you buy a replacement from an auto parts store, the blade isn't shaped right for hatchback. Just too much slant I guess.

**LornesBored** · 03-28-2008, 09:14 AM

I couldn't help ya with new pics,

I don't own that focus anymore =/

**glowboi87** · 03-28-2008, 09:55 AM

just a question then... what exactally is the purpose of this mod? it has the newer look of the "covered" wiper blades? its kinda a pretty penny for just a nice wiper. but every mod counts!

**LornesBored** · 03-28-2008, 10:02 AM

thats mainly the reason why, its all for the looks.

instead of the ugly metal with a wire sticking out of it metal blade you get the cool plastic covered one

**glowboi87** · 03-28-2008, 12:03 PM

oh im so down. gonna consult my local mazda dealer later today.

**zetecgt** · 03-28-2008, 02:48 PM

The Edge wiper is quite a bit cheaper, though....

dave.

**grbrgrnzx5** · 03-28-2008, 09:22 PM

Yeah...assuming you can get that doggone thing to wipe all the way to the top of your hatch...

**glowboi87** · 03-28-2008, 10:46 PM
