I work at a glass shop and post on here all day and this is wrong. ONLY rock chips are covered under comprehensive and are a free repair if you have a company other than State Farm or Mercury.

A 04 Mitsubishi Lancer RS FB21447GTNN materials - cheapest (my cost) $99 + urethane and install.


Also, how about trying the Acura Integra wiper delete plugs? I don't know the size though....

I forget the size of the hole for my 2G DSM's rear wiper blade, but we use Acura Integra plugs that cost $2.47 at your local dealership. If I remember I'll try to measure it and get back to you guys.

I don't see one for a Evo? I will measure my Honda tomorrow and see if the holes are the same size. If so easy fix by using a Honda plug!
