Oh yeah, they do look slick. Very minimalistic...very streamline. Install was a breeze. Easiest set evahhhhh. Take everything off your old wiper arm. Flip up a plastic "flap" on the Valeo. Slide arm into Valeo. Pull back until it "snaps". Put flap back down. Done. Blade will not come off unless flap is pulled back up.
Just love it when something new is actually better than what it replaces.

These are deff. a nice pair of blades as I have had these on for almost a year now and even though I'm in Phoenix(for now) and we just finished up around 140 days without rain, it has been raining here and there for the past couple weeks... The Valeos perform like the day I bought them, they were a little more expensive when I first got them, But if I'm not mistaken their prices are fairly similar to everything else out there now....
I highly recommend these for anyone who hates the problems assoc. with metal frame wiper blades..
yep, just checked tirerack and they are the second cheapest pair, and highest qaulity IMHO clicky fo' linky
Originally posted by Geddup Noise: Goonz mentioned the new Valeo's. I've heard great things about them. All of the new Audi's are equipped with them as well. I'm going to give them a shot once I get my next paycheck.
The thing that's cool about these blades is their lack of metal to metal joints that most wipers have. The blade itself usually isnt the problem. When the metal starts to get old or rust the wiper doesnt contour to the windsheild as well anymore leaving streaks and missing some parts of the windsheild all together. I've been pumped about these since I saw them on the Audi TT. But at first i thought it was just an Audi thing.

Thanks sport, but I was looking for other people that have had experience w/ them other than the 1 review and the 1 "i've heard they are good" post that I already read from the thread.

Trust me, my review is all you need... They far exceed any other wiperblades on the market...... Why do you think that euro's have been using this design of wipers for more than 5yrs now......could just be because they are of exceptional quality, and I'm pretty sure the big name blade companies are working on their own type of this design.
You won't be dissapointed with these blades, Sport.........
