Interesting, for sure.
They don't even list blades for my wife's W204.
Pretty much all other models are covered, though. ![bs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/bs.gif)
EDIT: And WM's website doesn't even list the Rain-X Fusion models.

$19 each. Throw in a few filters and nudge your order to $65 or more and get free shipping. Easy. The OEM wipers on the 2004.5-2007 cars are great, no upgrade is necessary! Mine have lasted two full years and are just now starting to lose effectiveness. Can't complain.

They're stupid. Pick up the OEM wipers from RMEuropean:

I used to use AutohausAZ but stopped once they sent wrong parts. You have to pay very close attention if you're going to use them because they don't split things up nearly as well as RMEuropean. You'll end up with wipers that won't fit, rotors that won't fit, pads that won't fit, etc.. it's not hard to do. For example AutohausAZ the last time I checked didn't differentiate between rotors for 05 models.
I appreciate the details of RME. On their site you would see "Joe Blow Rotor.. for cars with SPORT package 949" or "John Doe Rotor.. NOT for cars with SPORT package"

Walking into your neighborhood Autozone or Pep Boys and buying Rain-X or Bosch Icons off the shelf gives free shipping with no other purchases required.

Ya thats what most people do, but with us that have the facelifted wipers Autozone, pepboys, O reilys, walmart and other stores usually don't carry our wipers in stock. They usually special order them or even if they do have them in stock they still end up costing $100+.

Ahhh, that's right - my bad. Ok, what you guys need to do is retrofit pre-facelift wiper arms onto your cars, so that you can then fit Rain-X or Bosch Icons on. See - that was easy!
