A coupe of wiper blade tips that have worked for me. I replace them evry year just a part of my maintance so I go with stock blades. As you all know the pollution is just getting worse so if you clean the blades with alcohol that should keep a clear view a little longer.
If you know that there will be snow sleet etc. raise the wiper blades so that they don't freeze to the windshield. <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>
Cruise on!
