  1. Has anyone changed their wipers recently? I bought a set of genuine Hyundai front wipers at a decent premium from my dealer in hopes I would get the same OEM quality as my originals. Although the replacement wipers look similar they are quite a bit lighter and significantly cheaper quality molded plastic frame. For what I paid I was quite disappointed with the "OEM" replacement. Honestly the much cheaper Michelin tire branded ones from Costco seem more substantial at a third of the cost.
    Its a shame they don't just sell the OEM rubber inserts like they do for Honda's. Anyone have better quality wiper blade suggestion? thanks

  4. Thank you for the links, I just assumed the dealer's parts guy told me the truth when he said rubber inserts were not available for my car. Fortunately, I kept the old wiper beams which are really quite good compared to the apparent replacement beam with included insert.
