wiper linkage clips

Post by zachmac »

I lost one of the little wire clips for the wiper linkage (flew off to parts unknown). Can anyone save me multiple trips to the hardware store and tell me what size circ clip will replace it? The ones that hold the arms onto the pivot points.

I think that a C clip will be too big. I think a have an extra linkage.

Pretty sure they make c / e clips in all sizes. I just need to know what size? I need to go get a battery for my calipers and just measure the shaft OD.
