best wipers blades
What are the best wiper blades to buy? and are the blades that come on our car replaced for free underwarranty or no? The dealer told me mostlikely it will run me 50 dollars for a set of new ones.. Thats just a tad bit too much for some rubber

My vehicle had a defective Aero blade when it came off the boat from the factory. The dealership fixed it, but it broke again several months later, so they replaced it. In both instances the problem was the rubber out-of-alignment with the frame.
These are still unused, as my windows are cleaned with Rain-X.

I don't have the funky new aero blades, but I went aftermarket blades once and found the passenger side blade is curved for a reason - wasted 50 bucks there.
The stock blades use a refill and the MB ones seem to work pretty darn good.
PS Lots of rain here in Vancouver, as other Vancouver members can vouch for me.

Go to Walmart and replace the blades with cheap ones every 6 months. I found that the expensive ones and the cheap ones work the same almost and need replacement between seasons (winter, summer).
