wipers

I found a very good wiper blade for the excursion. Go to your friendly GM dealership and tell the parts guy that you want 2 left side wipers for 05 -09 cobalt. There are 22'' and have a strong frame with an air deflector. Best part hey are about $12 for both. I put them on mine the other day and am very happy with them.

Still doesn't beat the $3 wiper blades (Pylon brand) from Wal-Mart. (That outlasted the over $20 Michelin blade I bought to compare the two.)

I like the current RainX wipers I have now, only complaint is they only seem to last one season. Probably because my X has to sit outside 24/7 so it's harder on them.
