Default Windshield Wipe spray issues
So I had my windshield replaced on my C-5, and the guy broke my wiper nozzle . I tried inserting the broken tube back in and using RTV to hold it and no success. Does any one know were I can purchase this part? I went to the Chevrolet dealer, and they want to sell me the arm assembly that includes the tubing. Seems like a lot of $$$ for what should be a easy inexpensive replacement.

Thanks all~

Yikes...I would be going back to your windshield guy. Nothing is going to hold that, may have to drill it out and piece something together, good luck.

Your welcome and if you need the hose for the wiper arm i will include that for no additional charge. Just add it to the purchase notes if needed.
