Re: Windshield wipers (!)

Evan,

Try Tridon wiper blades.  They are available from Imparts (800) 325-
9043 (usual disclaimer).  Global blades are $2.99 each and Aerofoil
blades are $4.99.  I have even seen these in Ames and similar stores.

I have found that the Bosch blades last for about six months of
regular driving.  You can buy just the inserts at foreign auto parts
stores to save money.  I put Tridons on my wife's car and they lasted
for a year before they started streaking a little.  We used them for
six months more anyway before we replaced them.
