It's raining...?
As it's been continually poor weather Ive realised on using the wipers that a new set of blades would be a good idea as I'm getting some real noise and little wiper action, streaks and alike being left on the windscreen. Any recommendations on a decent new set would be very much appreciated - especially on the retro fit flat wipers - which look like an option for me at the mo - but I have heard some sets may be better than others.

CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE 2002+ Retrofit Flat Wiper Blades on eBay (end time 25-May-10 12:46:37 BST)
I put a set of these on about 6 weeks ago. They look pretty sleek and clear the windscreen perfectly. No noise, even when dry! Only slight niggle is that the passenger blade is slightly longer the=an the standard blades and just touches the rubber trim on the windscreen surround. Not a problem so far. I'm monitoring it and if it seems like it's causing any damage to either the surround or the blade I'll just cut a few MM of the end of the blade. I'll try and post a picture later. Regards, Andy. |

Re: It's raining...?
Glad to be of assistance!
Does your passenger side blade touch the rubber surround like mine? It's only by a millimetre or so and I've been through a bit of rain now and it's not causing a problem. Cheers, Andy. |
