Yes, they are many times better. The original wipers aren't that good. I have PIAA on my car, but I've heard Silblade are just as good but cheaper.

I second the Silblades. I had them on my 2002 and I plan to buy a set for my 2004 before the winter. They make a HUGE difference in windshield cleaning ability, and they last longer, too. They are well worth the cost.

$38 US seems kinda hefty eh? are they supposed to last the equivalent of like 10 OEM rubber wipers? how much are the dealers selling wipers anyways? (i don't know since i haven't had to change mine yet)

What's the longest you guys have used a silblade wiper? The website says they are good for 5 years. Really?

how do the silblades compare to the PIAAs? some have said to stick to the silblades for their cheaper price, but i've come across some sites selling the PIAAs for only a couple bucks more. and PIAA says their silicone blades leaves a coating that beads water, so i'd never have to use rain x anymore.
anyone also tried those new Bosch Micro Edge Excel blades?
