Thread #18145
i remember seeing pix of this before, and i was wondering how do they hide their wipers? i saw the thread on the vertical wipers, that was kind of cool. but i like the look of the hidden wipers..its very clean
The wipers are too big to hide. The only thing I can think of is maybe you saw a picture of a previa with a bonnet spoiler without wipers.
As Mike said, The only way to "hide" them is to completely "remove" them all together. Just think that it would suck in a down pour. Also seeing that you are located in Washington......no wipers would probally be a bad thing with all that Rain there. Sukoshiyoshi
very true ,
oh okay..maybe i read it wrong..because i thought i read that someone was able to hide them so it wouldnt disturb the flow of the car..is there any way to change to thinner ones? something that at least looks more appealing?
I know that my 95 and up models the Wipers were not so bad looking........but the models before that.....those wipers are an eye sore! Wiperless does clean up the front.....but to be Wiperless on a daily basis, just don't think that would be a good choice. Best best is to get the Bonnet Spoiler to "minimize" the visualbility of the Wipers. Sukoshiyoshi
yea..being wiperless, especially here in seattle is no fun! haha..unless i had a windsheild made of rainx..haha do you have a pic of the 95+ wipers? and are they interchangeable between years? mine's a 93..so yea..i got the eye sore ones..haha..as for the bonnet spoiler..im thinkin about gettin that now
This is probally the best photo that I have which shows my Wipers.

As you can see I went the total opposite route and did the "look at the wipers" look. LOL Sukoshiyoshi
oh wow! those ones do look better! haha..i checked out dream_styles and they arent so ugly looking! haha..so they are interchangeable though right? theres no mods required? just pop them on and im good? and as for the wiper directly up..i think that could look nice if it looked smoother..like the wipers from the newer cars..where they're made of pretty much one piece and spring style action..but then theres no nozzle for the washer fluid..haha..hmmm..ill have to think about this..do i really wanna go all out custom on the wipers? haha..ill be pretty much building a new van if i do all the mods i have in mind..haha
ONE MAIN DIFFERENCE: [IMG]http://www.previaparts.com/ECpublic/051/images/MVC-950l.jpg[/IMG] [I]91-93 Passenger Wiper Arm[/I] VERSUS [I] 94-97 Passenger Wiper Arm[/I] [IMG]http://www.previaparts.com/ECpublic/051/images/MVC-961l.jpg[/IMG] 91-93 Model: These wipers suck butt. I am glad they redesigned it. If you decide to replace the full wiper blade, try not to lose the two small screws. It will cost you $1 or more for each of them. And the arms are just big and ugly. 94-97 Model: Easy to replace. Just slide out wiper blades and and replace them. Although I have yet to find an aftermarket blade that fits the OEM squirters.
The RA1 Odyssey's also have that funky reverse rotation wiper. It's annoying. :(
oh wow..those look beautiful! haha..i think im gonna go do that and replace both of them
