Does anyone know an easy way to remove the wipers? I want to change mine, the springs all rusted up.

flip the plastic covers up on the front of them, should just be the one nut from memory! Then wiggle them up and off. Nice and easy.

i just painted my wipers the week before, theoretically its very easy to take out after flipping the plastic cover and undo the nuts....unless the nut (after 12+ years of not even been removed) gets really really (and i mean F*** really) tight which happened to one of mine, i didnt bothered, i ended up cover the rest of my car and just sprayed it...

What's the size of the washer hoses and also the radiator hose that goes to the top up bottle?
