Often. I do drive my car in the rain.

However, it does not have the range I would like to see.

It works ok, but end up having to manually wipe regardless.

Use it quite a bit.... love my wet weather drives, here in FL about the only way to use the car during the summer (plus makes for some fun car control).

Yes, much more rare to use here in So. Cal., but I agree with above poster, it seems 50% of drives to tracks days (@ 4:00am) involve at least light rain on the way.

I did not realize that I had that button! I think it would have come in handy a couple of times, but like most people, the intermittent setting never seems to match real world conditions. Either too fast or too slow, but never, ever, just right.

LED light kit looks cool. But does it require a modulator frizamatgasticvoltomer in vehicles older the '05?

I tried updating to LEDs in my (now gone) '05 Cherokee. All I did was blow out fuses at a crazy high rate until I got a clue Jeep No Likey LED

I'd like to go all LED in the cars plus a strobing third brake light like the cool kids at DE, but sticking with KISS
