Reflex wiper blades

Post by trocar »

I was out looking for new wiper blades and came across these blades called reflex.They have no linkage that will freeze in the winter and are make of a material that will contour to the winshield and have next to no drag at speed.Has anyone ever seen them before and do they REALLY work?I think I am going to try them

I'd like to hear your assessment trocar, after you've dissected their performance. The good but way over-priced ($40 each!) PIAAs on my wife's Buick are a couple of years old and I want something special but less costly this time. BTW, the Bosch Micro Edges I put on my Vibe seem very good.

I use bosch micro edge excel (can't get the non-excel version around here) and they're great in summer, but using some cheapy trico brand winter blades...never heard of reflex, definitely report back, would be intrigued to see how they performed!

I installed a set of these on my GFs Volvo about 2 weeks ago and so far they're working great. AFAIK Benz first started using these, if you check out a newer model it will have them, although they're much heavier and better quality.- Ryan

I tried to buy some from my local Canadian Tire and the only size they have left is 24". I guess their ads work great, hopefully the wipers are just as good
