Valeo wipers
I figured I'd give them a shot, since my wipers always got iced up and were a pain to clean. Also I was almost due for new wipers. These were for my xB. The Valeo guide recommended the 20" wiper for the Driver and Passenger side. The driver's side wiper is fine, the passenger's side isn't wiping the corner of the windshield because of the curve of the glass on the end. Also on the up-sweep, it wipes most of the glass except for that corner, and on the downsweep it misses a good 8" patch in the center of the windshield. I went back this morning to replace the pass side to a smaller one, maybe that will help to get the corner. I went with a 19" this time. It wipes the entire glass with no missing patches other than the same corner. As a matter of fact, it seems like it's missing more in that corner with the shorter wiper. In all:
