[s-cars] Windshield Wipers

[calvinlc at earthlink.net]

All this talk about windshield wipers leads me to ask a question.  My
driver's side wiper will not wipe the "top" of it's range clean even with
brand new wiper blades...I have tried 2 different kinds of blades and it
just kind of "smears" the top.  Does this mean my spring that holds the
wiper to the glass could be shot?  Thanks!

Now that we are into the "slime" season here in Minnesnowta, I busted my
driver's side wiper assembly (natch).  I noticed the assembly was creeping
out of the U-shaped hook at the end of the wiper arm and when I pulled it
appart to check it out, I broke the plastic clip that is supposed to keep
the blade assembly attached to the arm.

So, question #1, is the plastic clip available separately?  The FA does not
show it as far as I could see.

Question #2, should I forget the cheap fix and spring for a new assembly
itself?

Thoughts?
