Wipers to Picks

[cha0s]

Ok, ive decided my jeep needs some new wipers and i would turn the oldones into picks... (doesnt really need em but i would hate to break brand new wipers). What parts do i use out of the wipers? Im confused... Diagrams would be appreciated.

I'd use the rubber part, just so you don't damage the locks you want to pick.

There should be two spring steel bars holding the rubber in place. Slide out the rubber and shake the housing a little bit and you should have your perfect material for picks (sawblades work too, but there's a lot of material to take away when all you've got is a dremel) fall right out.

Then again, there are some wipers that use a single piece of metal that is in the shape of:

Code: Select all

but smooth, this material is only good if you take out the valley and chop it in half (which is what happens when you take out the valley)
