Rain-X is a popular item, but there are other decent ones out there. Have a look at Aquapel. I've never used it, but my brother does on his Altima, and it lasts several months to a year on one coating.

they are good for the rain, but i get a glare at night and some squekiness from them so i stopped using applying. if you are applying these, don't apply over rain sensor.

The best is aquapel i love it and it lasts like 1 year

without causing haze or marks like rainx does . its a funky chemical so you have to be very careful with it but its easy enough to apply and wipe off. and ur done.
check it out on autosupermart.com
