^ go get yourself proper headlight retrofits. Xenon concepts can do the innova projector retrofit for around 10k. Mas sulit than the keon sondra bulb that costs about 6k imho

Belated Merry Christmas mga ka tsikot.

Tanong lang po. Paano ba pinapalitan yung rubber ng wiper nung harap at likod ng Innova natin o may alam.ba kayong shop sa qc area na nagpapalit nun?

Maraming Salamat.

the front is easy.
one just has to learn how to remove the blade from the arm, via a "special procedure" that is easy to learn. and just like many instructions, following the instructions initially entails some guesswork. it's like one of those hand puzzles... difficult if one does not know how, very easy once one learns how.
installation is the reverse of the removal procedure.
the most difficult part is reaching over from the side of the vehicle, to get to the blade.
i am confident, you can ask the tambay mechanics around the store, to do it for you. "pang-taho na lang, boss."

the rear plastic wiper is something else.
i haven't changed mine since new, even as the rubber is already feathery. i rarely use my rear wiper kasi.
as i am adventurous, i would probably crack off one of the locking ends of the plastic holder, slide off the blade inside, and slip on a new refill that has been cut to size. HEY! do not cut at the end with the locking mechanism; cut it to size, at the opposite end. namimili ng diameter ang holder, so we better have the right diameter size. unlike the fronts, the rear is plastic and is non-adjustable.
if i fail in the above procedure, i'd probably replace the entire wiper arm. one unscrews the wiper nut holding it, by exposing the plastic cover at the base, by pulling sideways at the "ears". malambot po, at hindi mag-ca-crack.

Though LEDs are what I am really looking into, what's the location of this shop? 10k isn't too bad for a projector retrofit too.

Haha ang haba wala ako naintindihan pero thanks na rin for the reply dr. d.

Wala po ba video o kaya pangalan na lang ng shop sa qc area. Hindi ako maalam sa ganito baka masira ko pa.

youtube probably has one such.

the procedure is "almost universal". every mekaniko worth his dirty greasy pants should know how. ask them to teach you how, po.

Yung wiper ng Innova ko binili ko lang sa Ace Hardware, sila din nagkabit sa parking area, wala pang 10 minutes ayus.

Yung sa likod sir nagpalit ka na rin ba? San ka nagpapalit?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Yung wiper sa likod hindi ko pa napalitan, okay pa naman kasi kaya hindi ko rin natanong sa Ace kung meron sila. Try mong magtanong sa Concorde or Ace sa SM Malls kung meron sila. Minsan sila na rin mismo nagvo-volunteer na magkabit sa kotse mo.

Yung steering wheel cover ng Innova ko sa Ace ko din binili, sila din naglagay pinuntahan yung kotse ko sa parking. Medyo nahirapan silang ilagay kasi masikip talaga yung goma, pero sandali lang sinalpak, ayus.
