Using new Silblade "Flexblades" and I like them a lot. Old standard Silblades lasted about 4 years.

VX's don't need no stinking mod's.
But they're sure fun!
I just purchased the Rain-X latitude blades for $7 a piece - $13 off sale. Have not installed yet so I do not know how they perform.

yup Rain-X ftw!!!
Update the RAIN-X latitudes are AWESOME.
Yup - the Rain-X worked good for almost a year ... but just noticed the other day that the passenger side rubber tore almost 2 inches.
Guess I'd better start googling PIAA.
Pepino - I don't have any trouble getting my drivers side off, as a matter of fact it falls off everytime I lift the wiper away from the windshield. Maybe PO did have troubles & bent it in the past???

Put a smiley after you say that Bub.
I used to be a big fan of Valeo wipers, but that's all over. These are the ones that replace the lattice-work of hinged arms on a normal wiper with a blade reinforced with strips of spring steel to keep them on the glass.
I found that the plastic mounts get brittle in the winter and fall apart. Bosch came out with a similar design, but I haven't tried them out yet.
