    I got the Bosche wiper blades and Rain-X wiper fluid at Advanced Auto and installed them myself. Advanced was running a buy-one get-one 1/2 off sale.

    Sorry man, I use Rain-X windshield wiper fluid and it works very well. I don't have to use my wipers very often at all. Try Amazon or, for other stuff, try Autogeek.net (they don't sell the Trico stuff, I already checked).

    Just put a set of PIAA SI-Tech's on the other day. They were easy to install, are dead quiet and give a perfect wipe. This is with Trico View previously applied, makes for a fantastic combo! :thumbup:

    Damn, how much those PIAA blades set you back if you don't mind me asking?

    About $60 including tax for the pair.

    Just took them through some fairly extreme conditions for the past few days and they performed flawlessly. Worth every penny!

    I believe that is correct (that's what my 2007 is and I don't think anything has changed from 2007 to 2011). You can run 2 - 22" blades. I did for a while by accident but nothing rubbed or hit and it worked fine.

    I only got one insert that was the right size so right now my passenger wiper is on my drivers side with the new insert. I am not really impressed I might just get new wipers. Maybe I got a really junk refill

    I've had really good luck with the Valeos. You can get a pr from tirerack dot com for 26.00 shipped - ( buy one for 19.95, get one free + shipping)

    I totally agree, I've had a set of these on my car for about 3 years now... which is amazing out here in Arizona where the sun destroys everything! Silblades are pretty legit!

    The Valeos aren't as flush as those sillblades but they are silicone and do last long time. Might have to try out the sillblades next. I have some Michelin BS right now and they are noisy skipping nonsense supposedly silicone too but mostly annoying.

    Hear in the deep south, it is hot as hell!!! :tumbleweed:

    So I have had no issues using stock Toyota wipers. Tried Michelin's and Rain-X; both didn't last as long. Went back to old faithful.
