In the past, I've found that the wiper blade inserts from the dealer work the best. I haven't had to get new blades or inserts yet for my Vibe, so I don't know what the price is like, but that will be my preferred option when the time comes.

I bought a pack of inserts from Cambodian tire 4 years ago. Came with 6 inserts (I think), have 2 left.... not bad for a $3.99 sale!!!

Do you people never get rain or snow where you live I guess not?I live in CT and change my blades at least annually. But I also drive 20-25,000 miles a year on average.I finally got the Rain X blades and will never go back. Snow, ice, rain, that annoying mud spray from trucks, etc. It all goes bye bye with no streaks, chatter, nothing!

I myself go batty with a wiper streak or a foggy spot from vinyl outgassing. I replace wipers more often than many, maybe I should sell my used blades?? Sadly, I passed this expensive habit on to my youngest daughter who drives her husband crazy with wiper updates! Dave

I have a seperate pair of winter wipers. I suppose I should check to see if they fit the Vibe...

I bought a set of the Trico Neoforms for my minivan and liked them so much I went back and bought some for the Vibe too.http://www.tricoproducts.com/T....aspxA little more expensive, around $20 ea, but I'll know a year from now if they were worth it or not.
