I was just looking for one at Advance Auto yesterday. I found a 12" blade but it wasnt thin enough to fit into the rear slot. Might have to go to the dealer :(

Hi folks,

After a wicked snow-storm in Calgary and southern Alberta (hope you both survived SkinInc & BettsyBoy), I've remembered that my rear wiper blade REALLY sucks when it's cold. it seems to clear off a section about 3 inches wide, at the bottom of the blade, but that's it.

Anybody know if I can simply replace it with an aftermarket/better blade/how?

Thanks

BrendonR

I also had problems changing my out ... I had the dealer do it, it was very inexpensive. I think if I remember right it was only about $10. They didn't change any labor because they were doing other work.

I picked up an 11" bosch (I think) at napa. Clip didn't seem to match up so I just reused the old clip. It worked.

Jeepin_it_real, thanks, THAT's what I was hoping for actually.... I may very well have to run by CrappyTire tonight to see if they've god what I need.... Winter here sucks, by the time I get up to the ski hill - I can't even see out my back window, except for the very small patch where my wiper actually works.

I think I'll be getting the front and rear wiper blades, maybe tonight if I'm lucky.

Anybody know the length for the front off-hand?
