Windshield washer wiper clips
Where do you buy those replacement buggers. One of mine is cracked. Could glue it, but would like to buy new ones.

Paragon started to repo them a few years ago. Up until then, they were one of the "holy grails" of Corvette parts. I looked for years through hundreds of wiper blades at flea markets, and managed to find just a few. :) Chuck

Paragon reproduced the special clips used with the washer tubes used on 69-73? wiper arms. I thought later wiper arms used hoses, not separate metal tubes. Chuck

If you look it items "I" and "J" you will see a small item at the end that is the plastic washer nozzle/squiter. The plastic part is all I am after.

Called Paragon technical service department. Turns our they do have some "refurbished originals". $30 each! Since there is no alternative, I bought a set. $60! before "S&H". What are you going to do? If you need them, there does not seem to be an alternative.

Re: Windshield washer wiper clips (Larry82)
wow.. that's insane, 60$ for 2 pieces of plastic.
I'm not gonna reuse mine, I am seriously thinking about getting some normal european cars nozzles and mounting them on the hood or something. Those stock things of mine don't even spray, they just drip out water :(

Yes, it is insane, but they are not made and you have to get what you can. I also thought about some other squirter nozzles and on the hood, and then I thought, Nah. Will see if I can repair the old ones some how as a back up.
$60 for the small plastic pieces? Guess this means I am nearing the end of what I want to/can do with out breaking open the engine.
