Re: Factory Wiper Blades
Why throw away the OEM wiper holders, one of which has the spoiler on it, when for less money and a little effort you can replace just the the blade itself?
The OEM blade has to be removed with the aid of a knife to relieve the molded in clips. Once you have done that you can install new refill blades which have removable clips, henceforth the replacement blades are just cut to length and snapped in place.
The refill blades are harder to find but worth it as they are cheaper and you get to keep the OEM holders.
Throwing the OEM assembly away means you are tossing the good part away along with the bad part. The manufacturers want you do do this so that you buy a more expensive part and sometimes what you get does not fit really to well.
