If something stopped working on your car, chances are you’d bring it to a mechanic to get it fixed. These Russian’s, however, opted to go down the DIY route with surprisingly successful results.

A great way to save money with your car is by fixing any minor repairs yourself. So that’s exactly what these lads decided to do when their window wipers stopped working. While their DIY repair was successful, we doubt it would pass the NCT… or get past a police checkpoint.

In fairness, you’ve got to love the Russians. They’ll find a way out of anything.
