aftermarket wipers

[anzai]

hey guys just after a replacement wipers for my dc2r, any suggestions on what to get?

im sick of generic repco and sca stuff, wouldnt mind paying premium for quality..

was looking at bosch twin blades and they have pretty good rep, anything else i should look at?

cheers

Igor - go get a mate with a costco membership.

Goodyear wiper blades for $9 each.

i got tridon ones from autobarn, they seem pretty good so far, only thing i dont like is that the wiper arm sits on the top and not the bottom of the wiper blade (if that makes sense)

my local auto1 store stocks an amazing blade - cant remember the name of it =/
i also use spoon wiper arms =)

hey man are they universal ones? and are they good quality? $9 each is quite cheap but i'm willing to pay more for quality items

i got them hella cheap and they are genuine - wouldnt have bought them brand new lol
they actually dont help at all - they wobble just as much as normal ones at 110 lol

but they do look good =)

This thread makes me laff! People need to learn how to maintain their front car Windscreens! A well maintained windscreen works well even with 6 month old single bald super cheap auto wiper blades!

First of all drain/spray out any remaining wiper fluid from your resivior (empty all of it)! Then clean your windscreen with heavy duty detergent dish washer fluid is always good! (get that muck off!) Then rinse off and leave no residue. Wipe down with microfiber cloth.

Next get hot water and news paper go over the windscreen again until it starts squeaking.

Next add RainX windscreen washer additive (yellow bottle avaliable from from supercheap for about $10) to your washer resivior. 1 part additive and 30 parts water or follow instructions on the label.

Replace your wipers including the wiper frame.

Moving forward when ever windscreen gets dusty or dirty spray with resivior fluid and swish the wiper blades.

Once the windscreen is coated with the rainx you'll find you wont even need wipers, water will start beading and just run off at above 60kms/h!

Never use your wipers on a dry windscreen!
