I always use Goodyear beam blades from Costco. I just wait for coupons and a set of blades is under 10 dollars. Change every year no worries.

Those are actually Denso Designer series hybrid wiper blades. Rubber inserts and possibly the whole assembly are made by NWB.

Most import makes such as Mazda, Toyota from Japan uses parts from NWB.

This is awesome tip. I never really used my wipers before and when it first rained I was like man my wipers are crud. Then I used this trick and this past rain we had, the wipers worked like new.

I also wanted to take a moment and say thanks. I guess it's common sense, but it hadn't occurred to me to do this. It made a pretty big difference for me. So, thank you!
