Nos wiper arms????
Bought some parts from PPI and are supposed to be NOS. Did our stock wiper arms or the arms with the blades say made in china???? I don't think they do but its been a while so I don't remember.......

X3. Original wiper arms do not have Made in China on them. PPI owes you a refund, Teal Cobra.

Re: Nos wiper arms????
The wiper arms that you bought were arms that were shipped to us from Ford via their OE vendor in the late '90s.They are not advertised or sold as NOS. We have sold original Ford arms that were made in Canada, Great Britain and yes, China.TEAL93COBRA3279 wrote:Bought some parts from PPI and are supposed to be NOS.

Not disputing that Ford may have used Chinese derived parts as OE, but I know that I'd be a little miffed to find that out after purchase instead of before!mustangparts wrote:The wiper arms that you bought were arms that were shipped to us from Ford via their OE vendor in the late '90s.They are not advertised or sold as NOS.
