Wiper Arm Removal

Postby Trep01 » 23 May 2008 11:38

I searched but can't find a discusson thread on how to remove the arms from a '73 Rallye. Can anyone give me a clue on how I can pry the arms off of the drive splines without damaging anything? Thank you.

I usually stick a bit of thin ply next to it to protect whatever is underneath and use two screwdrivers. One as a fulcrum.
But I understand there is a "correct" tool for the job.
