R231 Magic Vision Wiper Refill
IS it possible to just replace the silicon rubber blade vers spending 150 on an entire wiper? Seems insane to me that wipers are that expensive and last maybe 2 years if I'm lucky.

Yo can, but I have a hard time finding a quality material. The ones I have found seem to last a year or so. They are cheap, and the last ones I bought are even less quality, they usually start to bend over and chatter. If you find some quality rubber, it would be easy.

Buy them once from FCP Euro and then every time in the future, you buy again from FCP Euro and send the old ones back for a refund.

Be sure to try several expensive blades to find one that provides some temporary respite. After you tire of that, you'll end up having the wiper adjusted correctly to eliminate any noise. Been there, done that.
