Hey!

It's that time of year to replace windshield wipers, and I figured the new Innovision "curved" wiper blades would solve my issue of the left (driver side) windshield wiper with bad contact. I'm sure you have experienced this as well with your 850's? I've read on some other blogs that this is an issue.

The stories I heard from 3 others were that they creatively "bent" the windshield wiper arm slowly in order to make contact with the window.

Questions:

Is this possible?
Have you done it?
Does it work?
Have you heard of this?
Any and all information is greatly appreciated,

Thank you all,
David
