I just replaced my wipers for the first time ever because the used car I bought had worn out ones which gets hard to see when it rains and at night especially. I was surprised how much difference wipers make. I bought this same one and they work perfect. They were also quiet which is a major selling piece by the brand.
Excellent information. I'm tired of paying $45.00 for a set of blades. I just paid $38.00 for two 16" blades plus two 22" for my Mazda CX-5 at Costco and that includes tax and shipping plus I'm not even a Cosco customer. These were the Michelin Guardian Hybrid Wiper Blades. Very nice.
Do you have the problem where the driver side leaves a streak at the top tip of the blade? My whole family's vehicles needed a change and when they were used, we all noticed the streak.
Yo Jeragon, Thanks for watching. I haven't noticed this issue. Are you treating your windshields with Rain-X, or similar product? That will definitely help keep them streak free. -Chuck
Thanks for watching, and taking the time to comment. I like "Made in America" products too, but unfortunately I always trip over a dime to pick up a nickel. lol My Ford Crown Vic is a perfect example. As thinks break, I've been getting cheap replacement parts made in China, Mexico, and Beyond. Not to mention the car was assembled in Canada. I just bought a Genuine Ford Motorcraft Serpentine Belt, and it says right on the box "Made in Thailand". Go figure.
@@PanzerPlatform Thanks for the feedback! Will you ever try out silicone blades? These michelin are hard to find in my country and the rubber ones dried out or smear reaching the 8-9 months mark.
@@sumanasoh That's a really good question. My local Walmart started carrying 100% silicone wiper blades recently. Michelin, and Rain-X brand. They cost $21 EACH, so $42 a pair. Yikes! Fortunately in my weather climate, I can get 2 years out of standard rubber wiper blades. From my under standing, the silicone blades do really well in the snow, because they stay flexible in cold weather. What country are you in, if I may ask? -Chuck
@@PanzerPlatform I live in Malaysia! Hoping to try some silicone blades after I fix my worn wiper linkage that makes horrible noise and chatter during operation. Have a listen here. ruclips.net/video/9dqBEchdZr8/видео.html They make the same noise even after lifting them up.

Yo Abdullah, My 2010 Grand Marquis takes 24"s. My 2004 Crown Vic takes 22"s. But I put 24" on my Crown Vic and they work OK. So I would say yes. -Chuck
These premium Guardian wiper blades from Costco is a piecce of crap. I broke the plastic trying to figure out out the hell they get installed. The damnest shit in wiper blades, and they're going back to Costco too! Broken or not!

@@PanzerPlatform I haven't treated them with anything... I should invest in some right before fall. Thank you for the input!
Maybe this will help;

Sale price is back now. They aren’t fantastic, but for $6 or $7 can’t complain.
Right on Shift,
I just saw the coupon in the book too.
$7 each.
Time for that $1.50 hot dog & soda lunch. lol

I liked it when Costco had the goodyear blades. Made in America. Costco stopped selling them so I get them through Amazon, and they're working great.

Do you find any advantage of the hybrid compared to the conventional design? Thanks!
I wish I could say so. But I really can't tell the difference.
Thanks for watching.

I like cosco blades 👍
I like Costco $1.50 Hot Dog.
@@PanzerPlatform I like cosco free samples
Dont waste your time. Thats why they're sold at Costo at a sale price.
Is a 24" fit for 06 Grand Marquis?
Yo Abdullah,
My 2010 Grand Marquis takes 24"s.

It's not rocket science, you just have to read the instructions. It's not the product that's crap, but the user lol
