Just got new wipers for the Laser, got the Bosch Icon.
Said to use wiper type A for driver, b for passenger. B doesn't swipe sh!t-all. Anybody have these on their car? Did you use two As? or are my wiper springs pooched?

Perhaps you guys know this one already but, one of the best tricks I've learned in car maintenance, if you still have the original wipers (probably not on the laser) go to the dealer and you can buy just the rubber inserts. Replace in minutes, work like new and are about $15 a pair (that's 2). Fraction of the cost of crapadian tire
I have a 06 civic, 06 is250 and an 01 Camry and they all get this treatment annually.

Well average price at CT is probably around $20-$25 each plus tax. I thing the last time I got some for the civic they were just over $13 for a pair. I'd say you'd save $25-$30 easily.

Isaque, Rain X is so 5 years ago! Haha, check out aquapell it's far superior. And never wet has come out with windshield treatment too but haven't seen a compare between aquapell and the never wet
