Conserve your water, it is up to you and me! Interesting that the longevity of the blades were tested in a controlled experiment (being inside). That simulation does not take into account UV Rays, wind when driving, road debris/grime, and etc which certainly decrease the longevity of windshield wiper blades wiping on the windshield during wet or winter conditions.

No, not that part...the "watch your water like you watch your son or daughter" part (stabs inner ears with knitting needles) Now there's Grammy-worthy stuff right there HAHAHAMy wiper blades are 2 years old...they should've disintegrated by now LOL

Very nice eye, bud. That is definitely a VIBE, I can tell by the radio.

The stock blades lasted a year. Went to the Toyota Dealer paid good money for Denso blades, and a year+ later. They are just now starting to leave streaks.I think I'll stick to Denso ones.

Quote, originally posted by oriden »im in need o replace the rear hatch window blade its making noise back there!you may already know this, but it is super easy to replace just the blade part ($6 or so from a Toyota dealer) on the back wiper rather than the entire arm. I've heard of some dealers telling people that the entire assembly needs to be replaced and they go for $30+. There's a link around here somewhere...
