What windscreen wipers?
I need to change my wipers. Was thinking about treating myself to a set of PIAA ones? Anybody else got them? Or have any recommendations decent ones that are half the price but just as good?

I have the aero blades on a 07 Hawkeye which work very well but not used the PIAA ones so can't comment on these.

to be fair bud i find that i hardly use the wipers, once the blades have swept over the screen a few times the water beads nicely off when your driving

As well as wipers get something like Nanolex glass treatment (similar to Rain X) as I hardly use the wipers especially at speeds over 30

Don't need it with PIAA. The wipers are designed to leave a silicone coating on the screen which means the rain beads off.
