Hey folks, do I need to disconnect the batteries before installing new washer contacts in the windshield frame & body? Any tips or pointers on installing them either way?

Yes, I would disconnect anytime you are doing electrical so the smoke does not escape ........

Always disconnect batteries before touching anything electrical. Install a battery cut off switch so you don't have to continually disconnect batteries. Make sure the wires line up in order on BOTH contacts. I do all vehicles the same so I never mismatch. From left to right 57F-71c-27k.

If you get them out of order, you may get the wipers to rest on the wrong side....

I use an Amazon.com one. Also buy an extra for extra keys. Used a 00 set of cables off of a new slave plug to run the cables through. Some people use smaller gauge wire, but with the amps running through the beast.. I wouldn't. Mounted on front of passenger seat box or behind.

I just bought one from military guys along with a keyed ignition. They had 20% and free shipping.
