Rain-X Latitude Wiper Blades Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 тра 2014
- If you are due for new windshield wiper blades check out the newer "beam" style blades- amzn.to/31L4fnP The model I am installing is from Rain-X and it is their Latitude line of blades. Instead of an external metal frame that holds the rubber blade against the windshield "beam" style blades have an internal metal spring frame that works better for keeping the blade in contact with the glass on newer vehicles that have curvier windshields. I install the new wiper blade and go for a drive in the rain.

I usually gauge when I should replace my wiper blades by the language I use during driving; if I'm mentioning mothers and sons and fecal matter a lot while driving in the rain then it's time to change out the blades.
I just bought new wiper blades today. And i've never been so excited for it to rain before!
This is the most helpful video I have seen on how to do this, thank you. I was finally able to change the wipers on my car for the first time thanks to you!! I could not for the life of me figure out what to do with what connectors until I found your video. Thanks again :)
I appreciate your clear delivery in your video. No "uhhh"s, "umm"s, or other time wasting fillers. And your information seems thorough and useful.
I just bought a pair of these blades for my Honda Element. I will have to wait for the next rainy day. I strongly recommend treating up your windshield with a rain repellant like RainX or Invisible Glass with rain repellant regardless of what type of wipers you use.
Thanks, that was very helpful. I have a pair of these, haven't installed them yet, for my Chevy Cobalt. Glad you told me to remove the little plastic strips :)
I just got some new blades on Amazon. Going to try both the Trico & RainX.
I've been using these blades since they were first introduced. Ive noticed that because of the design the blade remains out of the direct sun as the upper beam acts as an umbrella. Because of this the rubber is less prone to cracking and warping from heat and oxidation. I've gone as long as 4 years before even considering changing the blades. However, I do also live in Texas so the use of them is limited to rain and sleet. Snow and ice may reduce the wear considerably.
I bought the Rain-X Expert Fit beam blade for my Honda Element. Not complaining and no noises.
thank you for explaining in detail this really helped
Great review as always! I was looking into these blades and I may have to get some now. Wait 85 Miles Per Hour? That's insane, that's 136 KM!
I just checked a parts store for some new blades for my car and noticed these style blades weren't more expensive at all. Definitely going to try them out. Even if they don't noticeably work better, they look a lot better for sure.
Spoiler Alert!
any new wiper will work better than any two year old wiper.
Some this style were put on my car without me being able to see what they were. It turns out that the armiture assembly sticks up above the sight line of the windshield. So two black bumps to look at while driving. Newer cars and SUV's may have a deeper well where they are less visible when not used. I appreciate this video as I figure out what to do. And liked.
Beam type Rain-X on Impreza windshields tends to have too much pressure on the ends and not enough in the center... so the center of the wipe has a "smear trail" of water as if a leaf was stuck underneath it.
Thanks for the video.
Replaced the blades on our '06 Sedona mid January 2012 with Bosch evolution's. Longest lasting and best wiping blades I have ever tried. Just replaced them now with Rain-x latitude blades. We'll see how they compare!
I just put these on my car today and they work Great!
Thank you ever so much for this review, it was indeed helpful Sir.
