A good reminder that I need to get new wipers for both our cars.

I'm going to try out a few of your suggestions.

Honda inserts worked really well for a long time for me. Since they're not as cheap as they used to be for me we order some trico kit (left and right) on Amazon and have them in a couple days for like $20. If I can get 6 months streakfree out of the wife's blades I consider myself lucky. I can usually get closer to a year because I'll wipe them off when I get a chance to keep them from building up junk on them and then tearing causing the streaks.

Honda factory inserts. Easy to replace and inexpensive too.

I do the factory Honda inserts on our Civic Si as well. I’m happy with them.

i got Trico's from rockauto and they were dogE36 M3.  maybe old stock and the rubber was aging out?  maybe sub-par quality that got liquidated?  IDK.  replaced all within 6 months.  Bosch Icon FTW.

rockauto $16 for 4 Trico wipers 

 

shipping $32 

 

 

Their shipping costs are wild sometimes. I just ordered 4 S2K tophats, $14 a piece. $20 in shipping. 

well i finally got some from the "same shipping location" 

it meant i paid more for wipers but less for shipping

 

$38 for 4 was total

 

 

 

3 of these will replace Evo wipers - oem and original from 2006. 

 

1 will go on rear of 2003 RX300 - oem and orginal

 

yea 15 and 20 year old blades. They all work but leaves streaks slightly
