I listened to Scotty and bought silicone blades 3 years ago. Still going strong, despite the hot summers and freezing winters here in the midwest.

The best mod for a 94 celica is a pair of silicone wiper blades.

I wish I knew a mechanic like Scotty. Such a cool, honest guy.

Thank you Scotty, I bought silicon wiper blades for my wife's car and my daughter's car. It's been a few years and they are still good. Wow what a difference.

I was at the parts store one day and I remarked to a guy who was in there buying wiper blades: "you should just get the Rain-X ones at Wal-Mart." The counter guy shot me a dirty look. lol good times . . .

As someone who worked in an autoparts store I can tell ya Scotty is right

[davidbrennan]

In the North the blades only last a few winters MAX. I throw a medium quality set on in the fall and keep a new set under the passenger seat along with a new serpentine belt. I have ruined a good set of wiper blades driving in slush for long distances in 1 day. The highway salt + washer fluid combined with freezing/thawing can ruin a set in no time. If I buy the silicone blades they still only last 2-3 winters. I usually buy the one piece style but not the most expensive ones. I usually get 2 winters on average out of a set if I stay off the highway when the salt is bad.

Best advise he’s ever given.
He is 100% correct on this.

I put silicone blades on my wife’s car 2 years ago and still work as the day I put them on. Now all my cars have them.
Helpful hint:
1) Silicone or not, make a habit to wipe the blade with a damp paper towel each week.
2) I discovered RainX doesn’t work as well with silicone blades. Still use it for the side & back windows

THIS is why Ill never miss Scotty vid. Scotty will always be the man.

Scotty speaks the truth as always. I've been using silicone wiper blades early on and they last much longer. In the Midwest driving daily can get a year on a set. That's also not using them to melt / scrape ice off the windows in the cold months. Nothing will last if you do that. If you don't drive a vehicle many miles a year and it's garage kept they will last for a couple of years easily.

The blades added some 3HP to the '94 Celica

[leftygolfer]

Bought a pair a month ago, they work like a dream, smooth and quiet. Awesome product!

[floridajames]

I got Rain X Silicon blades at Autozone!!! Had em 2 years now!

[johnwyman]

Back in the 80's there was a company called Triple Edge that sold silicon wiper blades with a lifetime warranty. Yes, a LIFETIME warranty on wiper blades!
I never had to replace them. Unfortunately all the cars I put them on, I got rid of without keeping those blades.
I wish they were still in business.

[Goodsnout]

Silicone costs way less if ordered from China via Ebay. Mine are 8 years old, look new and work great. If I recall correctly it was $3.00 for the pair.

[timsullivan]

Just about every RainX silicone blade I’ve sold have been returned, customers hated them. I only use Trico Onyx and clean them once or twice every month or so and they still work fine after a year and a half. Been selling parts for over 30 years.

Thank you Scotty! You are always looking out for us.

I got wiper blades from my Subaru dealer and they last all winter and I still have them. I bought them in September .
