    I feel dumb for even asking this, but I can't be the only person with this problem... can I?
    So due to the placement of the sprayer on the wiper arm the flex blade blocks most of the washer fluid on the drivers side.
    Not the passenger side, it gets dispersed quite well and cleans up nicely. However the drivers side is always slow to clean as the
    wiper has to make a pass or two just to get the fluid on the windshield.

    So am I the only one with this problem?
    And if not has anyone solved it? I've tinkered with it a tad, but no real solutions.
    So if anyone has a good solution please lay it on me, I'm all ears, and no I'm not going to get rid of the style of blade, I like to much.

    Thanks

    Drew

    Is this a specific brand of flex blade? Every brand I've seen likes to have a different hookup, some bulkier than others.
    '13 Stang - V6 MT82 - GHIG
    '00 Grand Prix SE - Pink (L67 Swapped/XP Cam/3.25")
    '98 Grand Prix GTP - Black ($500 toy with broken trans. )
    '01 Bonneville SE - Sitting on a hillside needing attention

    Not only that but the set of flex blades I had liked to lift from the window at high speeds, say about 80mph or so. after switching black to good ol' Michelin blades with the scaffolding I'm not sure why I ever went with flex's
