Honda wiper blade problem - Mikey Jay
Does anyone know if it is possible to adjust the front wipers on a Honda prelude. The right hand blade hits the edge of the front pillar on the up sweep on driver's side. Even a few milimetres of adjustment would stop this. I fitted Bosch blades which are good. Perhaps I should have fitted the Honda oe blades. Thanks, Mike

Cheers Steve.I'll give this a go. The thing is Steve I think the mechanism itself is a bit thuddy when it comes to the end of its travel. When its raining hard and there's less resistance between rubber and glass it is thuddy. When its raining very slightly the blades fall short of their maximum sweep just a tad and dont make such a noise. Otherwise they work fine. Thanks again. Mike
