    Replacement WiperBlades??

    Just replaced the rear. Ended up buying a Trico refill. The OEM is 13" long and the Trico is a break to fit 15-22". Used tin snips to cut the metal guides 13". Part # is 47-700 and a pack of 2 was $6.97 at Advance. Any trapezoid type 7mm wide refill should do. Works great and beats paying $25 at...

    Fortunately the storm was much more hype than substance here. Scooted a chair out from under the table on my patio was the extent of my damage, LOL. Seriously, I lived in Newport News, VA for several years and went through several hurricanes, so I know they aren't to be taken lightly. I can post...

    Hello, actually bought my 2011 SIM Equinox LT in April 2011. Wanted to join to discuss maintenance issues and such. Other than oil changes and wipers, haven't spent a dime on this car.

    Replacement WiperBlades??

    Thanks, that's a good feature. Still a little inaccurate for the Lattitudes but the Tricos from Advance were on there. Will definitely go that route in the future when I need parts.:waytogo:

Turns out the button is in a different position and is not changeable. Took it back Saturday (Equinox this time) and we pulled a Bosch Icon and...

    Replacement WiperBlades??

    Thanks. Mine measure 24" driver and 17" pass. I bought Duralast from Autozone as they told me last time I was there for another car they were as good as the Bosch or Michelins. I'll take them back tomorrow and talk to them about this one. I also bought Valeos from tirerack.com using my car as...

    Replacement WiperBlades??

    I have a 2011 LT and the wiper blades on it were lousy from the start. I can't see to find the correct type of aftermarket blade. Did they change the connection on the '11 and newer? Mine is a push button release design rather than the typical hook or pin type. Anybody know where to get these...
