In a vehicle windshield wiper system, a support base includes a connecting rod fixedly attached to a vehicle body and extending across a width of the vehicle body, and a base member depending from an intermediate part of the connecting member. The composition is applied for a period of time sufficient to improve the appearance of the aging skin. The inner part includes a mounting structure for mounting the lock thereto. Portions of the control gates overlie the select gates. The regular pattern of lands on the surface of the substrate permits the use of a single programmable active substrate to mount die of various sizes by means of solder bumps positioned to correspond to the land grid on the active substrate. With this method and this device, it is thus possible to perform the decontamination process step in a controlled manner, yielding a more economical reprocessing method.
