I don't know if you can get these anywhere in the states, but they are the best wipers on the market, in my opinion. Talk to a few Canadians who have them and I have no doubt you'll get the same response. Reflex Wipers

They contour SO well to any shape windshield, front or rear, and FINALLY got rid of the missing area on the rear window of my Durango after 3 failed "repairs" by 2 Dodge dealers.

Can't say enough good things about these wipers, but there's nothing I like more in a car than bright headlights and a clean windshield!

I may buy these, but not until I get those Valeo blades from the Tirerack website...They're 2 for 1.

PIAA sounds good to me....the garage behind my house carries them so i'm tempted to buy them there.....it crossed my mind to do the carbon look ones, but that seems tacky and ricer right??
I don't think so but you be the judge. I think they'll look great on a suzuka blue.

I am the only one that buys cheapo Walmart brand ones? Cost me like $6-7 and just replace it every year.

Anyone know what's the difference between #420A and #420B. I just picked up a set of #416A and #416B.

I found wipers for under $4.00 (each) at Walmart. I was amazed. I replace every 6 months or so, but it's worth it to me.

Since your wipers are needing replacement, have you seen the SPOON Wipers that one of our sponsors sell? Pretty cool but a bit pricey at $180 for the pair....

Looks pretty cool with the Spoon badge

20/16

Get an all-season one like the Bosch Icon if you live somewhere that it snows.



Avoid PIAA stuff, or any with "silicone". It doesn't wipe as well.

I wanted some Bosch Icons but I had a hell of a time finding a 16 around here, so I picked up Trico Neoforms instead (same basic concept, frameless) and have been very impressed. Put them on early this year and they are still streak free. Even after these past weeks of extreme cold and ice.
