Default What a Bone Head move.
I pulled into the local Auto Zone to purchase new wiper blades for my 77 vette about 8 months ago. I went to turn them on yesterday and found that they won't clear the hood. About 1/16 on an inch. Of course I threw the old ones away that just needed refills. What a Jackwagon move.

Well I'm sure Auto Zone would tell you they would work on some other car that was the same color or had a 350 in it
