Tits Up

10$ total left/right combo from the dealer. Where have you found a better price?

 

No idea

 

I love the rain-x latitude water repellency ones, the difference is significant- after using them the water beads up and rolls off and I end up using them less. In Seattle area it’s a big benefit, but I’ve also noticed they take a while to “break in” so to speak, as in they can be streaky until they transfer the water repellency to the windshield. Had them on my vehicles the past several years. Only ~$15 on https://www.amazon.com/s?k=rainx+la...+water+repellent,aps,142&ref=nb_sb_ss_sc_1_30

 

After reading many of the replies, I think most people are missing the point of the post.

1. Reduce landfill footprint (do you replace your wheels when you get new tires)
2. I like the OEM blades
3. OEM are $10
4. I don't care what wiper blades you like/use
5. I didn't ask for any recommendations

 

It's still a first world problem. The world has enough crepe hangers.

 

some just assume, or will we spend $5 in gas and hour of their time to go down to WalFart to save a buck.

 

I think you're missing the point of posting, you're going to get peoples input and opinions whether you like it or not.

 

You’re right, what a travesty of justice.

 

And pretty shmucky to come on here and immediately dismiss what other people think on a “forum”.

 

Lol

 

Most big corporations only pay lip service to environmentalism.

 

I periodically wipe my blades down with silicone to keep them from drying out. Cleans them in the process too so you aren’t dragging debris across your windshield scratching it up.

 

Because you can’t beat how well the OEM inserts work, and they are cheap.

 

Had to order my inserts. local dealer doesn't stock any. I took that as an indicator they'd rather sell me some high dollar (markup) replacement wiper instead of something economical that works just as well as anything.
