Saw a review in the new R&T mag. and they seem pretty cool. I don't think they are worth $30 a piece though laugh

Just curious if anyone has had them, and how they compare to Bosch?

or anyone tried the PIAA wiper blades?? http://www.piaa.com/wiper.html

they are pricey...I've seen them anywhere between $35-$50 for the pair, but you can get them in carbon fiber!!

Here in the Northwest, we get lots of rain, so I have tried a lot of different combos. The best bang for buck is a set of Teflon refills ($8 each at CutRate Auto). Then you use "No Touch Window Stripper" on the glass to get it clean, followed by Rain-X to reduce surface tension.
When you're done you'll wonder why people use wipers on the freeway 'cause you probably won't need to!! wink

The Rain X that goes into your windshield washer fluid reservoir works great. I just squirt some on my windshield from time to time and the result is much better visibility when it does rain.
