I've always had problems with windshield wipers chattering really badly on the Tib for some reason. I decided to spend the extra money and get the top of the line Bosh Micro Edge wipers. I love them. They are so quiet. The old ones were fine in down pores, but it drove me nuts when it was just sprikling out. Even on intermitent mode the wipers would chatter. Now it is all gone! I know for all of you in dry climates this is probably a non-issue, but it has been raining about 60% of this month in MI. :roll:

How much do they run?

How often would you have to replace them?

I don't know if I'd get them here in the Desert, too dry and they'd prolly just dry out.

I got some Rain X ones that are sitting in my hatch. What can I say... I'm lazy.
