Windshield Wiper Blades

Can anyone reccommend a replacement. Bought new blades and realized the driver side has that nice wind deflector attached. So I'm assuming they want you to re-use that and just insert a new rubber blade.

Any suggestions?

Outmotoring has just the rubber blade replacements for sale.

Hope this helps.

You don't need the deflector thingy.

I'm using SilBlades which are made from 100% silicone and have a 5 year warranty. They honor their warrantee too, as they replaced mine after 2 years when the finish started flaking off.

They have a new design that looks very interesting. ..

Oops. Forgot about that! When I was at the dealer awhile back, I did ask initially if it was covered, the first SA wanted to charge me for the wiper replacement, but another SA came to my rescue and took care of it.
