| 2024 Colorado. Time for new wipers. NAPA brand? Bosch? Other? Got Napa, O'Reilly, Autozone, Advance Auto all fairly close. |

Look up on youtube how to replace just the rubber inserts on your oem wiper blade. Cheaper than buying the entire wiper blade and seems to last longer too Usually you can find them for your car model being sold by car dealerships on ebay. |

Amazon Wipers I get aboot 18 mo out of wipers and these have been pretty decent. |

Bosh icon have the shortest lifespan I have ever seen, but thats here in Houston with high heat and humidity. They also dont correctly match the angle of the windshield on my Expedition. Rain X last much longer and do a better job on my Expi. I am sure this is more of a car/location issue though. |
How do I get out of this chickenshit outfit?

Replace any that go bad as needed. |
recently switched from RainX. Been happy

| Pretty cool that I'm not the only one that bought a load wipers from rockauto for a few bucks each. Mostly anco but also some bosch something or anothers.I think I got about 8 wipers for every wiper arm I own. Stocked up on oil filters too. Rockauto is the best for shit like this. |

So I ordered these for myself as I noticed the wife's car had streaking last time we rode together. 18mo wipers. Last night at 2030. They were delivered at 0700 this morning. I remember 6-8 weeks for delivery.

They all suck. I’ve bought every brand at every price point and they all suck. |

PIAA Super Silicone These are the best. Also, they sell inserts when it’s time for a refresh so it costs a lot less. |
