[Healeys] Wiper mounting rubbers

[Perry Small]

Bruce
It really has everything to do with the flexibility of the rubber. The factory replacement parts In the 1960’s /70’s were very flexible and you could squeeze them through the hole easily. At that point the rubber bushes on a ten year old car had harden and broke frequently. Many of the later aftermarket parts are too hard to start with. 
Suggest slobbering some vasoline or other rubber lube on the bush then squeeze and push to get into position. If it breaks try another. Wipe up the excess goo and slide the stud through. Don’t forget the flat washers.
