Clubfoothead Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 So both our cars need new wiper blades. I went in to the auto supply store thinking I probably wanted the mid grade ones. It looks like the mid grade ones are like $11.00 and change a piece. WIth sales tax, we are talking about $75.00 bucks for both vehicles. Since I know nothing about wiper blades and I am very cheap, a $75.00 expense has me seeking the help of Tailgate experts. Wiper blades. Teach me.

Big John Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Math problem. Assuming "and change" means 99 cents and the top sales tax rate of 8.25%. 4 blades top price would be $51.92 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furd Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I've used Bosch Icon for awhile now. You could probably find some as good for cheaper, but I think that they are worth the $. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Dick Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 That's about what I spend per wiper blade. Maybe a couple of bucks more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubfoothead Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 I have no idea when the last time I bought wiper blades was or maybe I never noticed because it is rare for both vehicles to need new ones at the same time. The idea of spending at least $75.00 bucks on mid-grade wiper blades was suprising to me. Thanks for the help. I'll check out the Bosh ones when I go back.

CowboyGal2011 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Get the Silblade ones from amazon, you can get free shipping, no tax. They are silicone and last a long time. I think they average $12 each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
