Very good indeed. Well worth the money. Wes Jay m A 16 January 2008, 12:18 Last for ages too. Expensive but worthwhile MaDaSS 20 January 2008, 11:32 The only thing i hate about them is the sort of 'smear' on the window you get, its weird but at night it can be a pain, but even so i still have mine on and they have been on over a year easy. But the fact you can drive with no wipers on in hard rain is fantastic. Haha. Silicon, superb. ash1 20 January 2008, 12:49 cheaper here: http://www.autotintdesign.com/ and here Car Accessories UK - Roof Racks, Roof Boxes, Cycle Carriers, Thule, Karrite, Autoglym, Momo & more - Fasteronline (http://www.fasteronline.co.uk) I spoke to the chap in Leeds (autotintdesign) and you get a bottle of fluid to spray onto the screen, presume its for anti-smear and ensures water slips off screen quicker SC008Y_MAD 20 January 2008, 13:36 I have recently fitted these to my car and they have been very good. MaDaSS, I know what you mean, by the smear, but most new wipers do it for a while. andylegacygt 20 January 2008, 14:19 cheaper here: http://www.autotintdesign.com/ and here Car Accessories UK - Roof Racks, Roof Boxes, Cycle Carriers, Thule, Karrite, Autoglym, Momo & more - Fasteronline (http://www.fasteronline.co.uk) I spoke to the chap in Leeds (autotintdesign) and you get a bottle of fluid to spray onto the screen, presume its for anti-smear and ensures water slips off screen quicker Dude just use rain x i hardley have wipers on and the rain flys off at 40 mph and above its great!! Bug Eyed Peas 20 January 2008, 14:27 I got mine from Scoobyparts, top service too. :thumb: Scoobyparts Ltd PIAA SILICONE WIPERS - SATIN BLACK (http://www.scoobyparts.com/acatalog/PIAA_SILICONE_WIPERS.html) krisclarkuk 20 January 2008, 15:47 2nd for scoobyparts. i use rain-x on my windows aswell - i like the best of both worlds :) C McRae 20 January 2008, 15:53 They are expensive, but very good. I recommend them Anders_WR1 20 January 2008, 18:08 Very good wiper. I'm about to replace them after 3 years use! I bought mine here - free delivery and a good price: Speeding.co.uk Piaa Wiper Blades (http://www.speeding.co.uk/acatalog/Piaa_Wiper_Blades.html) Anders p1dazza 20 January 2008, 20:45 Grossly overpriced. I just use Rainex and apply it once a month so I hardly ever use wipers except in town stop go traffic. tiny gsy 20 January 2008, 21:46 I`d reccommend the sparco single mounting point ones, I had the PIAA ones on mine when I collected it and thought they were useless ;) Brun 21 January 2008, 17:53 Waste of money.... Ilya 22 January 2008, 06:23 Seconded. Very good indeed. Well worth the money. Wes +1 Brun 22 January 2008, 16:07 Has anyone here who has said they're good value and well worth the money, actually used them without using the piaa wipe thingy that's provided with the wipers? I've used them without the wipe and they do not make the water bead off the screen. Conclusion:- The wipe is impregnated with a Rain-X type substance and therefore, you would be much better off buying far cheaper wipers and a bottle of Rain-X - the result is the same :thumb: joey_turbo 22 January 2008, 16:34 Dude just use rain x i hardley have wipers on and the rain flys off at 40 mph and above its great!! Seconded. Apply it everytime I wash the car though.

Although i used the wipe initially, i have not used one for the years i have had the wipers on. Like IT TELLS you to on the wiper blade box, every time you wash the screen, leave the wipers running on a clean DRY screen for 5 mins, this coats the screen again, and hey presto, its funnny but, the rain just peels off again. You pays your money, you takes your choice. :D Brun 22 January 2008, 17:35 Did the 5 minute thing every now and again and although there was a mild improvement possibly, it just doesn't justify the cost for me :D ash1 22 January 2008, 23:32 so how does the rain-x stuff work when you use squidgy washscreen stuff? do you need to apply it again? Rob.VXD 23 January 2008, 00:11 Fantastic. Try Pri Racing (http://www.priracing.com/section.php/39/1/wiperblades-by-piaa/96280e8c08823199a1ba70cdcb8fb242) May be expensive(ish), but the initial outlay is balanced by the cost of replacement blades (£18 for the pair) Dazza01 23 January 2008, 01:19 Got my set from RA IMPORTS DERBY on a group buy, £28 pair or £32 for the carbon. Board Message (http://midlandscoobies.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=586) Dont think you can get that price now but its worth a try ask for ADY tell him Dazza told you from Midland scoobies :thumb: 01332 370000 adyhicut 30 January 2008, 10:31 Nice 1 Dazza :thumb: |
