Hello All,
Just registered today. Bought my 04 Smokin Asphalt in Feb. Always wanted one since my first glimpse at the concept model at the Philly auto show. I knew she would be mine someday. Couple of questions. The end of my VIN# is 5913, does that mean the number off the line?
Also, had a heck of a time finding replacement wiper blade refills. Can the washer unit on the wiper arm be removed and put on another wiper?

Welcome, SSR Taz . . . from Southern Arizona!

All SSR's have consecutive VIN's for the entire four years of production which ended somewhere around 24112.

Sorry, but since I live in the Arizona Desert . . . I know squat about the windshield wipers!

Does all this make sense?

I already Love the truck. I was hooked on the test drive. Can't wait until the weather is nicer here to put the top down.

My other ride 2001 Jeep Wrangler

Curt,
Makes perfect sense. I am in the Philadelphia area, it is currently raining. I have visited AZ, I am sure you don't have the same weather issues.

Give us the last 5 digits of the vin. That tells us exactly where you are since they are sequential..

I would think it would be 05913 since its an 04 which didn't run into the 15K range...did it?

Welcome.
I wouldn't attempt to remove the spraying unit...it's more likely to break than anything else. You can either order refills from the link given in a previous post or you can just buy one 19" blade and one 20" blade and pull out the rubber to switch with yours.

Here is the NorthEast Forum for events in your area:
Northeast - Chevy SSR Forum

There is a huge event happening in Maggie Valley NC next month. Should be over 100 SSRs there. The person putting it together, Gina, had a Taz painted on her old SSR, but that one was stolen.
Maggie Valley 2008 Run

It looks like there are at least 4 other Fanatics right in the Philly area. I am right across the birdge in Sicklerville, NJ.
