Default wiper arm nut covers

I know you can get these from dealer but I found them online for much cheaper; not mb or chrysler parts but at the end of the day its only a nut cover.

9/16" Hex-Caps Bolt Covers | Pro-Dec

these work great and have been on for a few weeks now w/o being lost yet; I ordered a few sets, wasn't sure of the size needed. anyway 9/16" covers fit and different colors are available.

I am in no way affiliated w/ pro-dec etc.

Great find and pricing for a product that has been an issue for Crossfire owners for the past 10 years. Definitely cheaper than any supplier previously found.

They look like they fit the hex, the OEM covers fit the hole and there is no place for water to touch the inside at all.
Pics would be nice if they are like the OEM ones though.

yup, these are hex nut caps; they will prevent water intrusion to threads; they are not original covers; they work better than the non-existant caps that came with my wife's car but not as well as oem for "purists".

Hey man, no bones here. Just sharing options and making a small joke was all.

I went to a "u pull it boneyard" and looked at all the Chrysler products, I found that wiper nut covers from that last generation fwd LHS/Concorde and the Mitsubishi based Sebring coupe both had covers that work as just fine for the Crossfire. They plug the cavity not just cover the bolt (nut) head.
