| 2024 Colorado. Time for new wipers. NAPA brand? Bosch? Other? Got Napa, O'Reilly, Autozone, Advance Auto all fairly close. |

Look up on youtube how to replace just the rubber inserts on your oem wiper blade. Cheaper than buying the entire wiper blade and seems to last longer too Usually you can find them for your car model being sold by car dealerships on ebay. |

Amazon Wipers I get aboot 18 mo out of wipers and these have been pretty decent. |

Bosh icon have the shortest lifespan I have ever seen, but thats here in Houston with high heat and humidity. They also dont correctly match the angle of the windshield on my Expedition. Rain X last much longer and do a better job on my Expi. I am sure this is more of a car/location issue though. |
How do I get out of this chickenshit outfit?

Replace any that go bad as needed. |
