A few years ago I was frustrated that the Bosch wiper blades for my '88 Carrera only lasted ~6 months before streaking or having the rubber start to split off. (Wimpy 13" blades) I tried some Silblades and they worked fine. I bought more for my Vanagons. The ones I bought 3-4 years ago for my 911 are still fine. I like them! The ones on my Vanagons are fine, too. Silblade has a promotion with 10% off and free shipping until the 31st. If the blades I bought from them were wearing out, I'd jump on this. http://www.silblade.com When I first bought some, they had only black. Now with spiffy colors, I'd probably pass on first glance since I'm not into tricking out my rides. But they still have black. Anyway, I'm only a satisfied customer who got an email about the discount and free shipping which I would have liked when I bought before. Richard |
