[T2] T2 wipers, window scrapers

[accessys at smart.net]

question 1  ??
question 2  yes I have seen just the rubber but why bother, the whole 
thing is almost as cheap and just snaps on,  the silicone wipers are 
awsome but pricy so only have one on drivers side so far.

question 3  yes rubber contact cement (brown) like barge or Dap.
do not use the rubber (grey) paper cement.
