Windscreen Wipers Refills

Sorry about the poor quality photo. This is a photo of the driver and passenger side wipers from my '08 Euro (build '07). Both blades are the same width (6mm) and profile. Length is 650mm driver, 375mm passenger.

They certainly look the same width.I'm due for some blades.Not sure how to change the bloody things though.

They are quite simple to remove. Just peel back the rubber at one end and slide the blade out, if you look closely at the photo you can see I have done that to take the photo.

That's very similar to the 03-05 blades, except that the middle strip is much much wider. The 375mm in 6mm width is easy to get, but finding 650mm in 6mm width will be difficult. Aftermarket 650mm length refills are almost always 8mm in width. Those Trico or Aunger universal refills with both 6 and 8mm width might fit.

Just bought a pair of universal fit(6mm/8mm) 710mm inserts and cut them to fit my 07 Euro. Works fine. Paid $10 for them from Super Cheap Auto.

Now to put some RainX on and I'm ready for the rainy season ahead.

Is RainX really worth it? Just a question.

If you have regular graphite rubber wipers, yes.

If you have silicone rubber wipers, no.

Honda wiper blades are shit, no doubt about that. I successfully claimed warranty on the first set of blades but subsequent sets i wasn't so lucky.

bosch aerotwin, usually sell for $30ea, so its $60 for a pair, but super cheap had a runout on them a few months back for $3ea, and now supercheap carry their own brand trindon or someshit, very similar to the bosch, they are charging about $25 or something.
alternatively, get the ones by x3e as they r very similar as well
i run those blades on every car i have owned for the past few years, its makes driving in the rain enjoyable
