Save yourself some MOOLAH!!! easy install and keep factory blades and save money!!!
I recently installed the Windshield Wiper Blades Refills, and overall, I'm quite satisfied with the product. The refills are made of high-quality natural rubber, which is flexible, soft, and durable. They provide a clear view after wiping, significantly enhancing driving safety, especially in bad weather conditions.**Pros:**- **High Quality:** The rubber material is durable and rainproof, ensuring a clear view after every wipe.- **Adjustable:** The refills can be cut to fit the size of your original wipers, making them versatile for various vehicles.- **Universal Design:** Suitable for cars, trucks, SUVs, and more.- **Cost-Effective:** Easy to install and long-lasting, saving money on frequent replacements.**Cons:**- **Installation Challenge:** The hardest part of the installation was pulling the clips without breaking them. Once past this step, the rest of the process was straightforward and easy.**Overall:** I recommend these wiper blade refills for their quality and performance. Just be cautious during installation to avoid breaking the clips. They are a great value for the price and significantly improve visibility during rain or snow.

Effective. Install tips below:
Worked for me, windshield & rear wipers.These require basic craftsmanship/mechanical skills to install properly. If you want a super-easy quick snap in replacement, buy full blades. Otherwise; Go Slow, Be Careful, Save Money.OEM manufacturers have their own styles of blades, as do different brands of aftermarket blades. Look carefully at the refills on your current blades to see the shape of the ends of the rubber, and the dimensions, to make sure they are similar to the pics shown with the description of these refills. I will only speak to the style I just installed.Mine have the thin, refill-length stabilizing metal strips. When we used to buy refills, the strips came in the rubber refills. This refill does not have them, because you can re-use the strips from the old refills, if you don't ruin them removing the old refill from the blade.These refills come as two pairs, with each pair joined at the windshield side. Do not cut them apart. They separate very easily by hand with no damage if you are gentle. I measured the length vs the old one, and cut the length about 1/4" longer on each end than the original.Take the blade off the wiper arm. Then sit down and install the refill. Trying to do this on the car is a recipe for frustration.There are different methods used to clip the refill into the blade, so you'll have to figure out what you're dealing with as you prepare to remove the old refill. Mine had little tangs sticking out of the metal strips at one end that I had to squeeze together with needle nose pliers. Of course, don't over-squeeze. The short blade on the rear window had one of the grips at the end crimped slightly into the rubber of the refill to hold it in place. This is where common mechanical sense and attention to detail pay off.Feed the refill into the grips with the clip end LAST. The tricky part is getting the metal strips into the appropriate grooves, then feeding the refill into each of the grips on the blade, while making sure not to stretch the refill or move the metal strips too far one way or the other as you feed it through. Double check the position of the strip in the refill before you snap it into place. Make sure all the grips stayed in the rubber grooves, or the unevenness will mess up the rubber's contact with the windshield.Every blade manufacturer had their own cute tricks to secure the refills. Make sure yours are compatible with this brand of refill before you order.If there are any issues with wear, I'll revisit this review. If I don't update it, they lasted fine.

So easy and saves $$$
Perfect for my 22 outback! Pop the end of the OEM wiper off with a screwdriver and slide this blade right on. It takes a bit of finagling but truly very easy to do. Can’t beat the price!

Saves $ and works well
Installing these did require some time and patience, but the result was as good as the much more expensive alternative of replacing an entire wiper when only the rubber blade is worn. Read the instructions carefully, have a magnifying glass handy so you can see what you're doing and have a little patience the first time. I have had these on the car for a couple months and see no difference from a complete wiper change. Saves a lot of $ if you are willing to put in the 20-30 minutes it might take to wrestle the blades into the existing wiper arm.

2007 Honda civic si inserts
I own a 07 Honda civi si. The inserts are not the right size but they work great. The passenger side was a bit bigger by 2 inches so cut it with a knife and perfect size. The driver side was a bit smaller 2 inches so I just slide it up and it was short on bottom but it work perfect even though it was missing 2 inches and for the price. I can’t complain!! I recommend it 100%

Too much work
These are good quality but replacing the blade is too much work

I have done two cars and both work well with no problems.
Works well. Important Tip- measure and cut to length prior to installing them. Do not install and then cut because if you do they will slightly stretch a bit when installing them and then shrink back to their original size and end up being a little short.
