Anyone know how to put the frt wiper arm covers on? I can seem to fit the edge under the arm by the pivot.

wiper arm cover

BMW superseded the arm covers with a new flexible cover that has tabs or ears that look like they go under your current arm-but they don't.

That's because the new part only fits the new style arm-which means to use that cover you have to replace your whole wiper arm. BMW and others sell the new arm.
