Stewart10 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Can someone please tell me which Windscreen Wipers would be the best to get? I know they all do the same thing [GRIN][/GRIN] but some look a bit bulky sometimes. Also what size would be needed for Supra please? Anywhere online that might do some quite cheap? Also I'm going to try to take off the older Toyota Badges and put on new shiny ones. What is the best way to get the old ones off without damaging the paintwork, and what is the best thing to get the new ones to glue on and not come off? Thanks in advance...

AndyT Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Google Aeroblade for the wipers mate. The badges are tricky, involving a heat gun / hair drier and slowly easing them off with a credit card or similar. Search the Liquidart threads.

DodgyRog Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 (edited) If your going to Likwidart one, they have glue already on them, as in peel off the packing paper, just clean the car paint area with lighter fluid first Edited January 30, 2011 by DodgyRog (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart10 Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 No it's not a Likwidart one I just wanted to get original looking stuff but new so changing things like for like on my car if I can. I just don't know what sort of glue to use now to stick the new badge on the bonnet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyT Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I think there's a full "how to" in the Likwidart threads folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackso11 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 You need to use a good dental floss do get the Toyota badges off. The have 3 locator tabs on each badge and sticky foam sticking the rest to the car, get dental floss round the back and use it like a saw to cu through the foam stickies and then just pull the badge off. Don't use anything hardm you WILL end up scratching the paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 How.....? (Assuming you dont run a business) Depends on the branch, some ask you to produce mechanic credentials, some hand you an application form. However I got lucky, being in the RAF, Telford Halfords offered us all trade cards Wipers, bulbs and batteries are the biggest savers.

nasoup Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 The front wipers are 20'' and 21'' not sure on the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-_-b Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Would defiantly recommend using a hair dryer in hair dryer with the floss, softens up the foam a great deal making it a lot easier to cut through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
