I would recommend getting the stock blades refills from the dealer. The driver and passenger blades are different sizes and Honda will be the easiest place to find the refills.

By the way, it doesn't rain here much so I replace my blades every 3 years. My experience may be limited.

Just go to the auto parts store and buy replacements.. I don't understand why it's necessary to pay for some "special" or even OEM blades. Even more......why pay for shipping?

I guess I'm missing something but wiper blades is the easiest do it yourself there is unless there's some hi-tech JDM blade that I've missed out on..

If so.....link me please...

Wipers are 16" on driver's side and 20" on passenger side. I'd stick to the factory ones as well. Its the better one and plus its basically the same price for any other.

Just be sure to save those metal inserts that slide into the rubber blade. Do not damage them! The refills do not include them and if you lose the metal inserts you'd have to buy the whole assembly to replace them.
