Dorman - HELP Windshield Wiper Arm P/N:42561
Keep the back glass clear with the DORMAN HELP windshield wiper arm, part number 42460. This rear wiper arm is a direct-fit replacement for the 2002-2005 Honda Civic. It is designed to reproduce the original arm's fit and function on the listed vehicles, taking over the job of holding the rear wiper blade against the glass as it sweeps. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for complete fitment details.
A rear wiper arm uses spring tension to keep the blade pressed against the rear window as the wiper motor drives it back and forth. Signs this part may need replacing include a blade that lifts off the glass, chatters or streaks even when it is new, or an arm that is bent, cracked or loose. Blade condition can cause similar symptoms, so inspect both first. If the arm is the cause, this 2002-2005 Honda Civic wiper arm replaces it.

Is this a front or rear wiper arm?
