Mopar Performance Windshield Wipers w/ Built-In Washer Jets Released For Jeep Gladiator

[Kevin_D]

Yeah, I’ve got a couple of ideas.
BAM sent me a replacement, but I haven’t had a chance to see just what they sent.

Kevin

So BAM sent me an entire kit as the replacement!
Now I won't feel bad about experimenting some.

Just now played around with mine,some may not like the out come but for me it works ! Got out the multi step drill bit ,placed a grommet in the hole and installed new hose down the wiper blade to get a bit more length and R&R the hose coupler. I used some yellow fuel line that I had laying around on the wiper blades....

Works great and do not foresee any problems.

This is probably how it should be installed.

I had my cowl piece off a couple weeks ago to run some cowl light wiring and the nylon braid on mine was frayed badly. I just put a couple inches of heat shrink over both lines thru the wiper holes. Next time I pop the panel off I will be copying your install.

During a -15F day with salt spray on my windshield, the male portion of the quick disconnect on the passenger side broke in half (between the barb in the supply tube and the quick disconnect portion)

While it was a wonderful new "performance" feature to be able to clean the driver's side window and simultaneously spray anything to my right ... I did find a replacement that worked (ignore the fact that the replacement looks smaller ... perspective messing things up again) ... It has been working for over a week now

Benny @AllMoparParts.com is there an official replacement for this?

A VW/Audi part 1J0955875R

I got it here:

I am sorry but there are no serviceable parts listed for these kits as of yet.

Are you able to get refills for these yet?

I just called Mopar and while we were able to dig up some service part numbers there is little chance they will actually become available to order.

I will keep checking them over time on Mopar's system and if available will post back here.

Thanks,

So what would that mean - when, in 12 months (or less) the blades need to be replaced, you can't because there won't be any available to buy? These are one-time use wipers?

Take it to a dealer to get your wave oil change and they won't be able to sell you filters and wiper blades LOL

Hi Bill,
The kit comes with 2 sets of blades. I would have to imagine that the average user will get 1 year plus from each set. This breaks down about $65 a year per set. It may not be worth it to some but for others it may.

You can do like I did: make a warranty claim when some part fails, they send a complete new kit, and now you have 3 replacements.

I would love to get over a year out of my wipers, but most of the year here is constant rain. I am lucky to get half that lifespan where I am.

I ended up with both hoses cut…

I finally had some time on a reasonably nice day, so I made some mods to the cowl.
I started opening up the wiper holes a bit:

Then put some rubber edging trim on the cut part:

The trim I used holds itself in place without any adhesive.
Then I put it back together:

So we’ll see how this works.
