It's time for new wipers on my 05sti,and I was wondering if you guys just go oem or a stock replacement? And where do you get them,at the dealer or a other source.Thanks

 

 

i got bosch and silverstar headlights with $20 mail in rebate. just wipers its $10 rebate aka not worth your time or $.50 stamp lol.

I'm about to take my wipers off, the only reason they wear out every year is because they sit in the sun in the summer.

I wish i bought those rainX ones

 

The rain-x ones at AutoZone are good, as are the PIAA ones (they cost a bit more but from tire rack you can buy just the rubber blade replacement when they wear out for the cost of the cheapos).

I went with the Valeo ones from tire rack and they are the worst I've ever seen.

 

Yep, I bought those for my old wagon and also have them on my current STi. No complaints, other than the price, I think I paid ~ $40 at Monument Car Parts or Autozone.

Like others posted, RainX is supposedly good but I havent used them.

 

those bosch ones are awesome. We have them on all our vehicles at home and they work wonderfully and they last a long time

 

yea i also got bosh and they in my opinion r better then oem ones and lots cheaper too

 

type-O bosch

 

i have the icons on now they are a 7/10

i had the piaa silicone 10/10
lasted over three years

 

looks like bosch is the ticket,do you take the aero blade off the stock one or dose the bosch come with one?Thanks alot for all your input fellas.

 

wiper blades are wiper blades.

 

anyone have any advice about rainx?

 

Wrong.

 

agreed he hasnt had the piaas

 

Yes, so incredibly very totally wrong. I went through 3 sets of "wiper blades" on my MR2 and since going with the Bosch Icons, I have not had to replace a set - it's been over a year and we'll see. They are like brand new, and my car lives outside. I got them because my R32 came with a set, and they were pretty awesome on that car. Never replaced them in 2 years and 35k miles.
