Remember that guy with the Cobra whose modding experience primarily consisted of some performance aftermarket wiper blades? Where did he go?

It was in fact Kilgore Trout who listed wiper blades as a mod. His car is not pullied though. He states that I'm the reason he no longer frequents this board... he has thin skin me thinks.

He's probably out washing/waxing the car and cleaning the engine as we talk about him.

If you live in a climate that is hot and cold make sure to get blades that have a metal frame and not plastic.

I am huge fan of Aanco weather series or Bosch.

I disagree about refills...I've found the blades themselves need to replaced to keep the rubber snug down on the windshield correctly...

and from years of selling auto parts, I've found that refills last nowhere near as long as complete blades

unless you can't possible come up with the few extra bucks I'd recomend any of the premium brands. I've had very good luck with Bosch and Trico Exact Fit ones...

+1 Refills are crap, trust me. I love the Rain X blades myself.

Yeah, something about you posting in a windshield wiper thread jogged a memory.

With the TX heat wiper blades usually last around 6 months… and we barely get rain (except for last year)… don’t care for the refills… I usually get the bosch or rain-x… can’t say I see a big difference between the 2…
