Wiper blade refills
Can anyone tell me a good brand of wiper refills? I just put Supercrap ones in mine and will be pissing them off real soon. They leave a haze like covering that dissapears after a few seconds, and sort of "web" a bit too.
I did the ones in my missus' Kia and I think they were Tridon, they seem really good.
I don't like twin blade ones because they can trap crap between them, and I don't want the ones that give a noisy "flip, flap" each time the wipers cross the windscreen and back.
Are Tridon the best? Or are there better or equal quality ones?
Experiences and opinions appreciated.

Welcome to the internet where people have opinions that you might not like
Id go looking for a set of "Bosch Aerotwins".. Their sorta the same as the springgy ones the VE's have, ive got a set on my VY and their awesome as!.. had em for about a year and a half now and still going strong, their somewhat expensive over normal wipers but i think their worth every bit

+1 to AC Delco, the VT had 4 different sets before settling on AC Delco.
Now have them on all my cars and missus car.

your local holden dealer mate, probably going to cost about $5 or $6 each retail

Gee, that's an awesome price! Other places want twice that much for crap.

Its a case of you get what you pay for,
Trico are the OEM wiper for your car and in my opinion the best rubber for Australian conditions.
Their catalogue lists the new Trico Tech Blades

agree, go to holden they give the best bit, never had a problem with them either.

Thanks guys, I did end up going to Holden and got AC Delco for about $8. They also had some other "genuine" ones for over $20, but the AC Delco are now fitted and are reasonably good, definately better than the "SuperCrap" ones!
I have a habit of going to Auto accessories stores, but should try ringting around a bit more first. Bt the way, like I posted in another thread, I priced a pair of O2 sensors at Holden and the bloke said they are over $400! Some things are better to buy the non genuine I think.

Jeez,I got two genuine 02 sensors for my VS ecotec from my local holden dealer a while back and they were around $70 each..

Yeh, I told the bloke at Holden that I could get them elsewhere for half that price and he said "Oh but these are especially for VY" crap, crap. I think different Holden dealers' parts vary in price greatly judging from other posts I've read on JC. I just noticed that you're in Tamworth, which could not be much more off the beaten track than Bundaberg, so I can't understand why prices can differ so much.
