What are Recessed, Depressed or Hidden Wipers? Depressed Wiper Systems, sometimes referred to as Hidden or Recessed Wipers, are a feature which pulls the wipers to a low position, usually behind the hood or cowl, when the wipers are turned off. The three main functions of the Depressed System are aerodynamics, protection and aesthetics. Having the wipers depress gives the car a streamlined appearance along the windshield and helps protect the blades by placing them in a semi-sheltered storage area. Some cars were equipped with depressed park wipers starting in the mid-1960s. When the wipers are switched off, a parking mechanism or circuit moves the wipers to the lower extreme of the windshield, behind the hood or cowl.
Fits 1971 Skylark Models.
