I cannot seem to find a good rear windshield wiper for my 2000 nissan pathfinder. Anyone know where to get one?

I have luck with an Anco 12" wiper blade. If I were you I would actually purchase an OEM blade and just replace the wiper insert when required. This ensures quality fitment and the refill blades are cheaper than entire new blades over time. I will do this next time I need to replace any wiper on my Pathfinder.

Not a bad price either, but $10 shipping is a killer haha. Have you bought from here before?

Yes, they install just as any other wiper blades would. Be aware that the first item (blade assy rear wiper) already has a wiper insert. For future changes, you will just need to purchase the refill and swap them out.

Right I understood that, I just am bewildered that it costs $10.89 to ship a rear windshield wiper lol..makes that $12 really be $22.

You may want to try at your local dealer, then you wouldn't have to deal with any shipping costs.

What about a 2001? The assembly part number is only through 2000.

Amazon.com?

http://www.amazon.com/ANCO-91-12-AeroVa ... automotive

if the above link sucks, seek: Anco 91-12
it's a 12" blade. It'll fit my '01 Qx4... I assume it'd fit the '00 PF.

Also... what do you mean by "good". I was under the impression that the root cause of failure for windshield wiper blades was he constant pressure against the windshield, deforming the blade (my own thoughts).
The rear wiper should have a ramp that takes pressure off the blades when not in use... or was that an update for later year R50's?

Ebay also shows some 12" Anco 91-12 wiper blades for $10, some with free ship.

If you're not a AmazonPrime member, you could get free ship if you reach the notorious $25 minimum.
