we've driven 150 miles today........
the heater went cold last Thursday........

Re: c20xe SRI
Does look right on those Speedlines especially that low, nice work...
Free Parking is a bonus, leaving my Cav in a carbon dust filled carpark is not.....

Re: c20xe SRI
Cavs don't have washer jets must be off something else, GSI's, CDX's, dippy's had wash / wipers though.

Think he means the wiper arm itself as it's missing in the photos. I don't think the Cavaliers had the headlamp wiper/washer combination, the Saab 900's did though. Similar set-up etc.

I might have a spare set of the wiper arms if thats what your after, They need new blades. Volvo ones work fine....
Re: c20xe SRI

I think you will find that if it is a jet only then it's from another car

Re: c20xe SRI
Drop links are easy, cut the old ones off, then slide the new ones on. Use washing up liquid, nothing else, do not be tempted to try oil or grease or you will fail and have to cut the new one off because it got stuck halfway on. Lots of washing up liquid and slide them on, twisting as you go in one fluid movement. Make sure you don't stop moving it until it is where it needs to be.
