I've heard that some of the aftermarket blades don't do well with the curve of the windshield, and will streak after a short time. If you don't mind, how long have you had the Rain-X blades installed, and are they still working well? Thanks in advance!

The OEM wiper blade INSERTS (not the entire blade) have always been the best ones to buy.

They are inexpensive (for the 2017, a kit of both L&R lists for ~$13 USD, and Bernardi sells them for ~$8.50 USD). Many parts countermen will change them for you also.

I keep a spare set on hand.

I went there to order a set for my 2016 EX-L. They only cost $9.02 but the shipping is $17.37. I think 26.39 is a "little" high.

Exactly what I am doing, when it comes to the unimportant things, and wipers may be important or not to some.

I find them on Ebay at times to be the same and less money. I do need to go get some Bladed for mt other car and I normally get 6 at a time pairs.

Bernardi usually offers FREE SHIPPING around November. That's when I order the HEAVY stuff, like fluids and coolant. BwaaHaaHaa...

I have switched to silicon wipers on my three older cars and probably will on my new CR-V when the originals need replacing.

Actually, waxing my windshield acts just like Rain-X.

For wipers I go Family Dollar and buy Blue Coral for 5 dollars each
and they have proven (to me) to be very good wipers.
For 10 dollars I can have brand new wipers that clean as good
as any other wipers that cost big bucks. I've used them for years.

True but in my experience Rain-X lasts a lot longer than any wax I have tried and it also has repels water better than Wax.

I disliked the oems but didnt want to change since they were new. Now i’m coming up on a year so i went and replaced ours finally.

I changed the rear with the oem insert & for the fronts I went with
Bosch Envision, which is their new flagship line

They are expensive BUT amazing in the rain
Guaranteed not to streak, have a sensor on them that when it turns yellow its time to replace

The day after i put them on we got a horrible downpour and it cut right through, anxious to see how they are in snow in a few months!

I only buy the cheap wiper inserts, so i change them every year at around end of November (normally they last up to the next rainy season). Thus I have new blades for the rainy days (2 or 3 months) each time. Been doing that for all my cars since I could remember. Nothing beats brand new wiper blades. My logic is why buy 3 times more expensive blades that last 3 years when I can have new ones each year or two. (hint: don't put wax or the like on your windshield so it stays smooth IMHO)
