c43 headlight wiper blade replacement?
I was wondering if anyone knew how to replace the wiper blade for the headlight on the c43? And if there was a website or part number that I can buy from the dealer also

If I'm not mistaken, you need to change the blade and arm. I did on both sides. Its NOT a cheap solution!

Just be careful that the blade is not worn cause it could damage the glass...

The rubber on the blade is still kind of soft. I also noticed that the headlight blade arm sticks half way on the headlight. When I turn on the windshield wiper blade. Is this a common problem? I'll try to take a picture.

Wow I also noticed today that my windshield wiper blade wash system is not working. Usually water comes out from the little nozzles on the hood when I press the wiper blade wash function. I checked the windshield reservoir and filled it with water but still water won't spray out? Could the nozzles be dirty or clogged? Or the pump might be going bad?
