Yes, they do work. It isn't just the wipe. When it rains down here in MS, it really rains, and I couldn't figure out why people were always slowing down and putting on their blinkers. Then I rode in some else's car. I couldn't believe the diference my PIAA's make. Suffice to say now when ever it rains, I drive.
Only thing is that they are a little more noisy if it's just misting out. But, well worth the trade off. You'll probably notice a more dramatic difference as the silicone in the wipers really starts breaking down on to the window.
Well my Optima died. It lasted since November of 2003. Not too bad I guess?
It died suddenly, so I was in a rush to get a new battery. I settled for an Odyssey battery. I was going to get the slim ones, but this application was suggested. The guy owns a battery shop, so I won't argue with him.
I need to get a custom tie down made, but for now, I have some zipties
Enjoy!

I just looked and the Valeos are $19.99 each, which is more expensive that the Bosch.
Uhh..which one are you looking at?
I got the "hook lock" Ultimate version where there is a special offer till the end of the month where it's buy one,get one free.So I pretty much paid about 25 for the two wipers.

It does say get one free, but what would I do with two driver's side wipers?

It was purchased before i got my MSP, so I just swapped it over to the yellow monster......its been holding strong with no problems. I plan on going to the Red Top after the yellow is done to see how that one performs.
How has the Red top been producing for ya L8R?? I dont have a sound system, or any xtra electrical goodies that would call for a yellow top.....so was wondering out the red top held up.
Hmm, I have had no problems. I just have 2 subs, an amp, and a deck, so nothing crazy as far as car audio goes. Since the yellow is a lot more powerful like you mentioned, I think the red would do you good.
I just fixed my AC. Read here >>>http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123678992
What?It should say the sizes for both sides of the P5's windshield,which is 19 and 21mm.
For some reason I assumed they would provide one of the same length for free. (loser)
