Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment before installation by matching the year, make, and model to the listed application. This assembly uses a bolt-on mounting style and electrical connection, so proper alignment of the linkage and pivot points is important during service. Confirm the wiper arm pivot point diameter and rotation direction match the original setup before final assembly on your Ford Focus.
