blades

[Feds]

I'm a little late to the party, but in these tough economic times, consider just replacing the rubber.

If you look hard enough through the wiper section at CT, you can find wiper blade refills. For ~$7 you get 2 refills that you trim to the right length, then slide into your existing metal frame. You may have to bent the tabs back a little to facilitate installation, but for ~5 extra minutes, you save more than $20. According to the wealthy barber, that's like earning $480/hour.

I bought a set of the CT Reflex hybrid ones for our second vehicle (Dodge Stratus) and have not been overly impressed. They claim that these things are great for the winter, but I would wholeheartedly disagree.

They are the Merde.

I think I have regular reflex ones on the Xterra, they work just fine.

Now that I've found you can get the trico precise fit ones from TSC for like 5.99 each (cheaper than CT cheapies) I don't see why I would ever buy those pricey blades that last the same amount of time (it seems) as the cheap ones.

I've got the reflex hybrids on the truck. Put one in the rear first and was pleased, than put them up front. So far I would rate them above average performance, but not amazingly as I was expecting.
