Wiper Blade Inserts

[turban01]

I have a '07 G35X and I love it. I was wondering if anyone has every found replacement inserts for the wipers. It looks like the factory blades are bosch ?? Assuming you know where to get them, how do you replace the inserts. I'm afraid to pull too hard on the rubber cover to expose the insert.

I actually purchased the entire bosch blades at pep boys for about 20 bucks apiece , but they are a totally different size than what comes up on their computer screen (22 and 18). The drivers side is about 3 inches short and the passenger was about 2 inches too big. At a minimum, I need to measure the actual size, take the one I bought back and just buy the size based on the factory blade size. But, I'd still like to save some doe and use refills.

I just bought some at the dealer for about $14 buck each side

They pulled the wrong part number there also, so the parts manager came out and pulled off the blades and found the right size and installed for me

Ive found with wiper blades its always good to try and find OE ones cause all the ones I've tried suck.

Gotta be silicon too.

Last ones' I got were at Wla-Mart for less than $5 per side. They were anco. Don't care for Botch.

Hey the size is 26 and 15. The driver side 26 and the passanger side is 15. Won't be easy to find a 15. I think that's a stupid size.

I am still on my old one they working great. They working awesome. Over a year and no issue.

I will probably getting it from the dealer because what I have right now is really good. Before every car I owned I had to replace the blades 2x a year.

Hey thanks. I just measured mine with a tape measure as well. Driver side is 26; passenger side is 16. Bosch Icon makes both A/B blades. Any idea which is need for each side. Whats the difference between A and B? I found a website that talked about the more curvature on a B blade than an A. Anybody know if that is true.

Serious? so is this site wrong about specs?

says coupe=passenger 17/driver 24and sedan=passenger 21/ driver22

anyone know waht owner's manual says?

BTW tripledge @ walmart are silicon and are pretty cheap!or you can buy PIAA more expensive, but they are silicon also.

havent found any other silicon ones. i think oem is anco for us.

I rarely have to use my wiper baldes anymore. Applying RainX to my windshield makes a HUGE difference in visibility during rainy conditions - especially on the highway. The high speed just pushes all the rain up and over the car

You gotta go with Bosch Ikons. It's the last wiper blades you will ever buy.
