I would like to know whether there is any special issues in replacing the wiper arms (not blades) of my 1998 Accord.
The arms are starting to rust and I would like to replace. Do I have to worry about the linkage or is it just remove the bolt and pull off arm and replace with new arm????????

Hi jgreene21,

Rremove nut and pry arm off. The seat is tapered and might need some force to get it off.

You need to be concerned about the position of the arm when removing and installing.

If the rust is minor, some sandpapering and a new coat of paint would do nicely, use Matt Black.
