Product Description
Rain-X Latitude wiper blades are designed with a new curved-blade technology and low profile, aerodynamic frame with built-in spoiler to prevent wind lift, reduce drag and noise. Because the frame is encased in rubber, exposed metal components are eliminated and so is ice and snow build-up. This feature also increases wiper blade flexibility and adherence, so the wiper blade hugs the windshield, even in harsh winter conditions.

Rain-X Latitude wiper blades consistently deliver a smooth, clean, chatter-free wipe through its contoured design, that applies even pressure along the entire blade length. They are made with chloroprene rubber, which is harder, stronger, more durable and more thermal resistant than natural rubber. The blade is also graphite-coated to reduce friction and increase adhesion to the windshield. Rain-X Latitude wiper blades are the clear choice for winters!

5 out of 5 stars Works great with my car!   March 11, 2010
Carol
It works great with my car! The make, model and year I have is HONDA CIVIC 2006. For the HONDA CIVIC I have, the left windshield wiper is 26" and the right is 24". At first I had doubts about it because it actually extends a little more than the ones that came with the car originally. I thought that it wouldn't cover the middle too much. It seem like that the first few swipes after I installed it. But once the wiper molded to the shape of the windshield, it works like a charm. I have used this for like about 2 weeks now and every time it's been used, it wipes the rain off squeaky clean and it's really silent when it does swipe off the rain. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who has this make and model. Even installing it was easy. I didn't even have to change out any parts when I got it. If you are wondering about the 24", it also works great.


5 out of 5 stars Remove protective sheathing   February 21, 2010
Mr. Techie (NY, NY USA)
For those that gave this a bad review or mentioned streaking or missing a two-inch swatch of the window...

There is a protective sheathing over the real blade
that actually looks like the blade.

I was about to return this item,
and when I took the blade off the window,
I noticed a little sticker that said remove before use.

I have NEVER bought a windshield blade with a protective covering,
nor would I suspect others as well.

Took this off, but the blade back on, and it works wonderfully.



5 out of 5 stars Great for Rain!   December 17, 2009

I live in Portland, OR where it rains a lot. Good wiper blades are a necessity for rainy weather. These work great in the rain! No streaking and easy installation! Plus, they don't cost a fortune! I highly recommend getting these premium blades versus the cheaper rain x blades. They are definitely worth it!


5 out of 5 stars expensive but worth it   November 27, 2009

These are the best blades I've found. Bosch Icon and PIAA are both good, but they don't last nearly as long. Most blades last me about 6 months before I notice the drop in performance; these last for about a year.

It was extremely easy to install, and has been working very well with all the rain we have been experiencing.
