'04 Tiburon wiper question

    I recently purchased a new 2004 Tiburon. It looks like two of the three
    wipers (including rear) is missing a piece, however. One of the main
    windshield wipers has a beefier look to it -- as if there's a thick piece of
    plastic within the wiper, while the other two wipers are just the wipers
    itself. Almost as if there's some kind of frame missing.

    I'm sorry if this doesn't make sense, not sure how else to explain it
    though.

    I'd like to get replacements for the missing frames, but don't know what
    it's called that I'm actually looking for or where I can purchase them. Can
    anyone help?

  2. Hi,
    Not sure about 2004 But I have a 2003 and the driver side has what looks
    like a spoiler on it to keep it planted to the windshield as some wipers
    tend to lift with alot of wind hitting them. Nothing on the passanger side
    or rear as the driver is the only one that really needs to see. As for the
    spoiler thing I am not sure on this but this is what I gathered by looking
    at it and past exp. driving a little fast in the rain. Hope I am right....

    If there's actually a piece missing, it would be covered under the
    bumper-bumper warranty.

    Thanks Greg.

    Can anyone else with a Tiburon or knows of this confirm? Basically the
    passenger wiper and the rear wiper is just the thin wiper itself, while the
    driver side wiper is thicker with sort of a spoiler, as you described, on
    it.

    Yes, the driver's side has the spoiler on it to keep it glued to the
    windshield while driving fast or on windy, rainy days. The others don't
    need it. If you really wanted one for the pasenger (rear not needed due to
    the fact it is already shielded), you could probably contact your dealership
    to see about getting one.
