They work because I've been pulling debris out that has settled on them. Been in a few weeks now and no movement whatsoever. Also can't really see it when the hood is down. This sure beats pulling the wipers and cowling and cleaning out those end wells - especially the passenger side that is notorious for filling up if your car is left outside and subjected to leaves and such.
Now you tell me!
I must have most of a mango, part of a papaya, and plenty palm tree debris down there...
its the little round seed/berries from palms that get everywhere.
Price paid for shade.
Will be doing similar improvement after a cleanout.
Thx!
