Hello everyone, I has a quick question to ask regarding the PIAA wiper blades for our second gen CLs and/or TLs. I want to get the newer models such as the SI-Tech Run Flat, but my questions are:

1- Do they still use the super silicon with these blades?

&

2- Can they be refilled using the wiper blade refills that PIAA sells, or am I going to have to buy a whole new set of wiper blades when the time comes to replace them? (That'll become expensive)


If those two conditions aren't met, then I'm going to go with the original PIAA Super Silicon Wiper Blades.


Thanks for all the input

 

Bump. No one really knows?

 

Edit: didn't really read the question. Never mind.

 

Yeah I will, I thought I might give this a try it here since it's not really a important issue. Thanks though

On the bottom, it says Super Silicone Technology.

While I'm not 100% sure, from these two links it says they're not compatible with the Si-Tech so you might not be able to change the inserts.

Better yet, just call them here.

and you can't go wrong with the basic wipers. I have the Super Sporza and I think they're great. Except I've noticed some scratches on the windshield after a few months with them.

 

Thanks for all the help guys. I think i'm just going to go with the regular PIAA super silicon blades. They'll save me money in the long run due to the refills and they have high prestige from members of this forum.
