The rainX wipers which are $16 are also the molded ones where the entire frame/body is curved... not the old school design with the 6 lil supports or whatever that the stock ones use.

Walmart sells the normal style of rainX blades for $8 a pop... so... $16 vs $24. Still a deal.

Anyone use those frameless wipers and how do they compare to the stock ones?

not yet, but, i'm about due for a new set of wipers.... weather is starting to clear up here, so I may wait until fall... no need for new wipers during the hot sunny summer.

My next set will be those fancy ones, prolly be around oct when I buy them tho. I've also though about buying the $30 silicone wipers too. I think those would last at least twice as long as conventional rubber wipers.

I just bought the driver side wiper and it's a 24" and NOT a 26" on the hatch.
