Rain-X Latitudes

Post by 02csnow »

Just wondeing if anyone has gotten these yet and what they think of them. I just ordered mine directly from Rain-X and they have a promotion going right now. If you buy two blades you get a free visibility pack treatment, visibility pack glass cleaner, and a microfiber towel.http://www.rainx.com/offer/

I keep a good coating of Rain-X on my windshield and I'm try to remember the last time I used my wipers. Rain-X is good stuff.

problem i sorta found with rain-x on your window, is once you start using it you sorta always have too. My window must of had the rainx wear off and its a pile of crap now. but running a stock window with just nice blades works good on a new car...idk maybe im just dreaming but djb383 you just reminded me i gotta put some back on my windows.

well i got my latitudes today and will be putting them on this weekend. maybe it will rain so i can test them out. i did notice that the blades are clear and not black. oops they are black, little sticker says to remove before installation.

Can't wait to see if those work. Please let us know. Perhaps you could simulate some rain (sprinkler or hose) for the good of the community.

I have these on my Vibe, and they work really well. They look funny though, due to the fact that they don't have all the traditional supporting brackets. I guess that doesn't bother me though.
