    salamat sir skybison!

    naisip ko lang, kung sobrang ok tong wiper stand, bat hindi iniimplement ng mga car manufacturers? yung built-in? curious lang.

    thanks!

    Same with me, bro.

    Kasi iyong nabili kong wiper stand (autosport(?)).... when you turn on the wiper,- the stand would not fold... It is a good thing that the footing is plastic and so the windshield was spared for scratches..... Experienced this once while I was driving on the road, during a downpour and so I got soaked...

    Happened to me also. I was lucky though to be near a gas station so i stopped to fix it there. The trick is to be mindful of the position of the stand as over time, it wears and can bend away from the "snap down" angle.

    I don't think it was meant to fold once you start the wiper, I always fold the footing before I start my car. But once in a while I'd forget and end up getting soaked too.

    vinj, hihina yung tension ng spring nung wiper over time if lagi naka-angat yung wipers.

    oo nga no. maybe that's why car manufacturers dont put these as part of the system in a brand new car. baka later on, gumagalaw na wiper arm mo pero di sumasayad ng lapat sa windshield.

    yes maybe we can save our wiper blades but in the long run eh at the cost of the spring of the arms. if we do cost-benefit analysis, baka mas practical if we simply change the blades at specific intervals.

    Madali lang naman kasi solustyon dyan. Once a week isama mo sa routine maintenance yung pag-galaw sa wiper stand. Been using it for 3 years na, dati walang 1 year palit wiper na ako, now 1 and a half years na okay pa. just my 2 cents.
