Default New Wipers... what you think guys ????

i got a new set of wiper blades on my car (a Peugeot, made inFrance). i think they might be too big because they hang over the edges a little, but I don't care, they work great and I would have to say that they are the only blades I have ever had that I actually like to watch working.
Call me crazy, but lately I have been driving around non-stop with them on. I've even been pulled over and the cop asked to go for a ride so he could watch them work.


They were outrageously expensive (being French), but safety is my main concern and like I said, they work great. Let me know if you would like a pair for your car.

LOL, I can see you guys have put Si (SSS) in a 'situation' as he hasn't commented!!! To moderate or not to moderate, that is the question!!!

Those wipers are obviously not compatable with Scooby's... I'm sure the charge temps from the TMIC would go through the roof with the bonnet scoop blocked up like that!!!

im not sure those new wiperblades are a good fit as they are sticking out of each side of the window
do the close together and make the single wiper look
