rubber wiper blades
 
been a year and 2 months and my wiper blades arent just cutting it no more. its smearing the rain/water over my front windshieild. so i want to ask are their any other options besides OEM that i can replace my wiper blade rubbers with? im not talking about the entire wiper blade assembly, just the actual rubber blade.

thanks

no need for anything but some wiper blades from walmart. They ALL DO THE SAME THING, remove water from your windshield.

about the same or longer then OEM ones. Walmart has different kinds. They have lexor which are good wiper blades. About $6 something each.

I got Silicone TripleEdge blades from Walmart and they are guaranteed for life.

might also want to try wiping the blades down with a lil rubbing alochol pad.. oil and other fluids from the road stick to the blade and render them prettymuch worthless.. i give mine a wipe whenever i use them..

I got cheap ass ones at target and they suck

spend the money on some good name brand ones.

I might get the silicone piaa carbon fiber blades from Pep boys

then afterward you but the blade refills

I bought some Motomaster Silicone wiper blades and they suck assneck. I've heard good things about Bosh, PIAA, Tripple Edge, and OEM refills from Honda.

ive never been let down by these

bosch excel or something like that

edit: the ones i got are a whole replacement, not just the blade

snowboreddave 12-28-2004 07:10 PM

the bosch ones are great. i have em. a little pricy but so damn worth it... no smearing i swipe and it doesnt even seem like you have windshield anymore.. nice stuff.

D17thgen 12-28-2004 07:30 PM

what part numbers should i be looking for when looking for just the rubber wiper blade (not the whole assembly)?

or does it go by size? if so what size for driver and what size is it for passenger? civic 03 coupe if it matters

kimchi29 12-28-2004 07:35 PM

21 driver 19 passenger. i just picked up some bosch ones at pepboys. a friigin rip off, but i was desperate. total came out to about 12 each !!! OUCH!!!! well it was for the whole assembly not just the rubber blades. but oh well, they work great! now i dont get that crappy smear when i drive. time to pick up some rain x too.

robo1040 12-28-2004 08:27 PM
