One Wiper Blade?

I was wondering if anyone has done a DIY switching from two wiper blades down to one on their 2k1 civics? I haven't seen any member rides with that done so is possible or does everyone just think it's a waste of time...let me know!!!

Our wipers are kinda puny anyway, so why would you want to do away with one?

Yeah I saw it on older cars but forget it. I thought it was cool for awhile but not anymore I like my car the way it is. But yeah I think its rice in my mind and out of style

I figure about 10, since you're improving your coefficient of drag and reducing unsprung weight.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Haha, well thnx for all your guys input...I was just wondering what everyone thought of that idea...As I predicted...A WASTE OF TIME. I noticed a lot of civic owners did that in the past, but I guess that idea just went down hill, mainly because a lot of what you have already said...JUST PLAIN RICEY!!
