Hi everyone - noticing my wipers are getting dull and want to ask what the best wipers are for the car through winter since I am in Ontario....also if anyone knows an on-line vendor I can purchase them from...

Thanks in advance to all responses...

1995 Black/Black '968

 

I've tried a variety of the traditional cantilevered wipers and found them all to work poorly, including the Bosch ones. I tried every one of those new mono-blade wipers in the auto parts store and nothing fit. Finally I ordered a pair of Valeo blade wipers from Pelican. They fit properly, I'll tell you in a day or two how well they work.

 

Thanks!

 

How did these wipers work out? Thanks.

Joe

 

Sorry for the delay. They mounted to the arms properly, but the driver's side blade does not make contact with the windshield properly for the first four or five inches of its stroke, thus leaving a triangular section unwiped in the center of the windshield at the bottom. Doesn't really interfere with visibility much, but it's terribly annoying. It's very strange, I can't figure out what's wrong. Could my windshield wiper arm be very slightly bent? Maybe the wiper blade just doesn't have enough offset from the arm? They both work very well, much better than the old ones, on the rest of the windshield, where they are actually making contact. I'm somewhat bewildered.

 

Same exact problem with Bosch Marathons.

 

Has anyone found a better wiper arm? Not just the blade or blade holder but the entire arm

 

I tried the bosch evolution blades, and the passenger side sits nice on the shield, but the left side because it's slightly a curved blade, the middle does not touch the glass...So when it's wiping, there is a small patch on the right side of the driver windshield that does not clear, and it's a major pain! lol

Does anyone have a recommended wiper blade for summer/rain weather for the 968?
