Like Ian, I have contemplated just getting a new MINI when the windscreen gets dirty, so as to eliminate the trouble of replacing them. Then again, Jock's tactic is to just throw a rock at the windshield and let the insurance company and MoP provide a clean replacement. But I have elected to just replace the wipers.

Being the cheap bast@rd I am, I'd prefer not to replace the whole wiper assembly. However, with my huge teacher's salary increase, I am just flush enough with cash to blow it on a new Tony Hillerman mystery, or to live large and get new wiper blades AND wipers.

Any suggestions?

yeah, take a long walk off a short pier! Hey, I passed the dreaded *pin* test 7 times

I recommend the Joe Rose mod of putting 2 driver's side blades on. Works a treat! I tried the PIAA blades ,,,,junk! I even sprung for the $ 85 Valeo from tire rack...........major junk, they went right back
