Default RE: Wiper blades

I got some $10 blades from my local parts shop. 22 inchI think. Kept the OEM ones to reblade them next year. You can just buy the rubber insert and keep the blade. I've done it in the shop parking lot with ym swiss army knife. This time I got lazy.

If your new blades are squeaking, you might look at polishing your windscreen with the usual suspects available at the local DIY shops. I polish mine about every 3 months to scour any rubber or pine tar residue off. Works amazing.

I had to get some myself because my blades were not washing enough rain away for me. I went to autozone and picked up some good ones for about 20 bucks. I luv them. I'm not certain but I think I had to get two different sizes...I do know but I almost let them slam back down on to the windshield...bad juju

I use Rain X wiper blades and they are GREAT! Use it along with Rain X windshield washer fluid and call it a day. I did get the passenger one 2 inches shorter for some reason, but don't recall why.
