Installing new windshield wipers
Installing new windshield wipers
I wanted to install new windshield wipers since mine have now dulled down. They are regular stock windshield wipers. I was curious as to what material I should try to find, if anyone knows of great brands to replace mine with and what I should avoid.

Re: Installing new windshield wipers
bosch micro edge is really the only blade i would recommend, and ive tried em all. you can also go down a few sizes like 16/18 instead of 19/21 and they will perform way better.

I use rain-x latitude and they work FANTASTIC for me.
My friend has a truck and said his latitudes were horrid.
I guess some cars they work better, but on my 2006 civic sedan they are really great.
I would also suggest getting the rain-x wiper fluid, its like 3$ for a jug that will fill up your reservoir twice, and after applying it you don't even need wipers above 50 mph, unless you are in an absolute downpour.

Just get the refill blades from honda. Everytime I used rain-x it made my wipers shutter and make all kinds of noise, havent used since dont see a need to.
