    NNBS windshield wipers

    Time to rant.. anyone here with a NNBS truck have to replace your windshield wipers yet? I just did to the tune of $47 for the pair at Orielly's. The new ones have a special design wing on them that is molded into the blade and is supposed to help hold the blade down at speed plus they have a different latch design on them to mount to the arm.

    I thought I was the only one. SHit, my tore within a year of having it, and the trucks been sitting most of it. The same wiper tore again, and misses spots already. Just replaced the damn thing for 24$ Ridiculous.

    the rainx lattitudes, and the bosch icons are the only real replacements so far. I put the lattitudes on my dad's accord, and at 75, they lift off the window. Not a huge fan. They are still 22" like the NBS, i'd IMAGINE you could just swap arms, and go back to normal wipers.
