94060 Silicone Wiper Blade Refill, 24"" (Pack of 1)", black

I love this silicone wiper blade insert. I no longer need to apply Rain-X. It works so great that I rarely use my wipers except to refresh the beading effect or in heavy rains. I've had it for many years, because when there's ice frozen on it or ice frozen to the windshield, I don't pull it or turn it on. If there's freezing rain coming, I lift the blade arm away from the windshield. I scrape ice clear from the windshield where the blade will move. On a brand new vehicle, I'd put on a pair without even waiting for the OEM ones to go bad.

For my 2013 Mazda3 i Touring Hatchback: The 19" (passenger) PIAA refill which is 6mm wide fit fine. The 14" (rear window) PIAA refill which is 6mm wide fit fine although it was tricky getting the refill into the existing blade because of the stops at both ends of the blade to prevent the blade from sliding out. The 24" (driver) PIAA refill which is 8mm wide did not fit as the claws on existing blade were 6mm wide. I'm not sure which if any blades are original. I ended up getting a 24" Rain-X Expert Fit Conventional blade for $8.50 at Wal**** which is 8mm wide and the PIAA 24" refill fit great although it is 1/2" shorter. I don't know the width of the other length Rain-X Expert Fit Conventional blades so you'll want to check. I took a caliper to Wal**** so I could find the right blade to accept the PIAA refill. My advice: Measure your existing blades to determine whether they are 6mm or 8mm wide. Think about which refills will fit if at all considering the 24" and longer refills are 8mm wide while those shorter than 24" are 6mm. You might need to get a new blade whose width fits the PIAA refill width for the length you need. Consider cutting a longer refill to fit and possibly use the metal strips from your old blade in the new refill so you don't have to cut the metal strips.

PIAA Silicone Wipers are the only wipers I use now. As long as you know how to use them properly, they are awesome. Here is how they work: Every time you use your wipers, it will deposit a little bit of silicone in any little cracks or pits in your windshield. You cannot usually see all the little cracks and dents in your windshield but they are there, all over the place. Then the water gets on your windshield and beads up because it doesn't like the silicone. It doesn't smear all over the place like it used to. I don't use my wipers as much or as often compared to regular wiper blades. Also, the blades can recondition an old pitted windshield by filling in pits with silicone. These wiper blades take a little bit of work for them to function correctly. HOW TO GET THEM TO WORK: - Purchase the regular wiper blades first, not the refills. - Follow the installation instructions. Most important is a clean windshield and run them dry for five minutes. - Keep your windshield and wiper blades clean. These blades are designed for water, not all the bugs that you hit. You will have to clean the bugs and their mess off the windshield yourself. Wiper fluid made for bugs helps, but not a whole lot. Dirt and grime may build up on the wiper blades too so check the blades them selves. Usually I'll just need to rub my finger, or the windshield cleaning tool at the gas station along the edge of the wiper blade that is usually in contact with the windshield.

I love Piaa wipers. I've been using them on my cars for almost 20 years. They work much better and last a lot longer than typical wipers.

Only lasted 13 months and I'm already having to replace. Not durable.

Replaced the wipers in my oem wiper blades with these. The drivers side fit pretty well, I ordered 24" 8mm for both sides though because even though the passenger side is a lot shorter than 24 inches it appears to be 8mm in width so I ordered a longer one and cut it since the wipers under 24" come as 6mm- I saw another reviewer said his Honda is the same way. I used the metal supports these came with on the drivers side and drivers side installed nicely without any issue, but used the metal from the old wiper on the passenger side since the metal was pretty strong and I couldn't cut it down with the tools I have (wire cutters, also tried tree branch looper). There are little hooks on the metal and I had to flip the old metal bars around and rebend them for the passenger side a little bit to get them to fit right but not very difficult, I'd actually never changed my own blades before I usually just buy some at an oil change but it was pretty easy, watch a youtube video if you get stuck. Another possible concern about cutting it is there are ridges in both sides of the rubber in the wiper that the metal sticks hook onto for grip, if you cut it short you cut one of those ridges off but despite that the wiper feels snug and secure and I've used it a couple times so far with no problems. Haven't seen a dramatic "rain-x" effect of the water beading yet but maybe I haven't run them enough yet to really coat the windshield well, they do seem to wipe well without streaks and will hopefully last a long time since the cost a premium over regular wipers.

Excellent wipers, have lasted for 5years and still going strong.

I purchased these refills to replace the oem wipers on a 2010 Subaru Impreza. When I was researching options for replacements, I read in other reviews that people had to re-use the metal strips from their original wipers because the new ones didn't fit. I will confirm that these refills will fit the oem wiper assemply on the 08-11 Impreza's and 08-14 WRX/STi's without any modification. I've had these installed for a few weeks and so far they're working great; no chattering or streaking. I highly recommend buying these refills if you're wiper assemblies are still in tact. Reduces waste from working wipers being discarded and potentially cheaper than buying a brand new wiper assembly.

A Very good product, it's runs clearly and smoothly. I will recommend it to friends.

I have the PIAA wipers installed on both cars at home. I decided to try the refill blade to save money and produce less waste when it was time to change the wipers. The instructions were on the back, it was easy to remove the old blade and insert the new one. It get a little tricky when you get near the end when the tab needs to insert in a cavity on the refill blade but, everyone should be able to install it at home.

If you are looking for the best product for the price, this is it! Amazing quality for what it cost me.

Purchased this multiple times, working well in Seattle and Delaware. After I moved to Quebec Canada, it will only lasts 2-3 months, because of the low temperature and too much dirt and dust. IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT WIPE THE BLADE (the rubber part), it has a special layer of black coating which helps repel the rain. If you thought that's dirty greasy oil from production and wipe it out, the blade will wear out within a month.
