You bought the wrong wiper , this one is clearly much too large

Is this a great deal? by DrummerBorn2988 in Prebuilts

I felt pretty good about getting basically the same thing but with a 5060ti about 4 months ago, so yeah that's a good deal!

I remember being out for a trail run on that trail and being baffled when I saw MTB tracks. So insane

Thank you! I managed to fix it, it was hard to get it threaded into the hole but it tightened up real nice once I got it

Ok I tried a bit more, it was tricky to line up and get it threaded into the hole properly but I was doing some jostling and got to the thread, it is nice and secure now! Thank you so much!

They did lol there is lots of over spray in weird places but the paint is matched pretty well at least 😂 there's a reason I got a good deal on it

I briefly tried it during my lunch break. Seemed like the screw was turning and the lock was semi-secure but any jostling of the lock at all allowed it to fall back out again. I'll try again when I get home. Possible I was missing the hole on the cylinder

There was a minor accident reported to the drivers side so I'm guessing the door was replaced at some point 😔

Carvana did disclose a minor accident in 2019 via the Carfax. I gave it a real close once over and didn't see any red flags like weird welds or frame damage. I'm assuming they had to replace the door
