Over the years the wiper arms were fitted to the wiper shaft in two ways: with a clamping system on the wiper arm, while the newer system used a conical coupling. In the latter case the wiper arm is fastened to the shaft with a nut that remains visible for the model years for which the cap nuts mentioned here are intended.

The cap nuts are made of aluminum, which has two big advantages: firstly the cap nuts are always visible and do not rust, and secondly, when over-tightened, the nut is damaged and not the thread.
