I'm still using my original ones. I can't believe how long they have lasted. When they need to be replaced I'll try the inserts. I didn't realize you could buy just rubber inserts. Even better. _________________ 2008 Pathfinder SE V6 4X2 | Premium | Side Airbag | Air Lift 1000 | XTP IMS | 7 Pin Trailer Connector

I'm surprised you all even bother with wipers. Next thing you know, you'll be commenting on snow tire threads......  _________________ 2008 Pathfinder SE 4x4 |

I agree with Bosch Icon. I live in Seattle and these last at least 2 years with almost constant year round use. Other brands have lasted as little as a month. |

looking back through my records, i've only replaced one set of wiper blades (OEM) on each truck
average 5 years per set, not bad at all!
just ordered new OEM replacements, fronts & rear, for $22.66 per truck

I know right. That's why I can't believe how long they have lasted. On past vehicles I think I used the wipers once a year for two years before replacing them. _________________ 2008 Pathfinder SE V6 4X2 | Premium | Side Airbag | Air Lift 1000 | XTP IMS | 7 Pin Trailer Connector
