The best wipers I've ever had were from PIAA, I had them on my Celica. They use silicone instead of rubber for the blades, they don't get hard and brittle from sun exposure like rubber does and they don't get stiff in winter like rubber does. Nothing has come close to their performance in my experience. They cost more than the typical wiper, but well worth the money. Any retailer that deals with Keystone can order them (Crappy Tire and Part Source in Canada, not sure about U.S.). They also produce steel spine and spineless versions.

Believe it or not I have done exactly the same thjing. I also had the PIAA "super silicone" wipers on my '02 Celica and now have them on my Yaris. They are great.
