PIAA silicone wiper blades

[800]

Was having problems with smearing and refections on the windscreen. Following a discussion here I tried some PIAA silicone blades. They are very good, worth a try. You clean the screen first with some wipes enclosed with the blades. This gives a kind of Rainex result. The new blades is like having a brand new windscreen.

However, you have to order 'straight' or 'curved' blades. So, I went out and cheched the car before ordering - clearly straight.
Untill, I start fitting them. Sure the drivers side is straight, but the passanger side is curved
Never noticed. I'm a numpty I am.

Where did you get them from, and how much??

There are good but don't last long, as they are so soft.

Don't even think about trying to clear frost with them.

Yep, good while they last, but wear out very quickly. their main bonus is that they don't freexe in winter like conventional blades do.

Got them through here. www.piaa.co.uk/ About £30 each, I think.
Didn't realize they have a shorter life.
They don't get used in frost as the car is garaged.

I think I'll just stick some new OEM blades on.
