rain-x blades?

[MidnightG6]

can someone tell me the part number for the rain-x blades for the 2006 6's or can someone point me in the direction that i can purchase them cause i think the auto stores don't carry for the 2006 in my area last time i check.

thanks

hey sadly i had this same problem a couple weeks ago and after scouting around looking for the blades, it turns out the only place you can get them is from the dealership. The even worse news is that 2 wiper blades will cost you almost 55$, atleast thats how much i had to pay to get them from the dealer, no where else has them.

I just ordered them directly from their site. However, it took them like a month to get here

not sure what you have for auto parts stores, but around here, Advanced, and Pep Boys, carry the Bosch ones and the Rain-X ones. Just a little FYI.

I seen that to but I kinda don't feel like paying 13dallors for shipping, I knowthat my parts stores carry the bosch ones but they want like25for just one. I know walmart has micheline ones for 15 a piece with the adaptor, I have the neo fits on now and the sputtering across my window and streaking bad, they last maybe a year and a half.

Re: rain-x blades?

Re: rain-x blades?

This online retailer has plenty of blades available. The link below takes a few secs to load but it should take you directly to the item/price list.

Re: rain-x blades?

Unless I am missing something there is NO way the rainX blades will mount to the stock arms. I may have missed a post since I just got off work, but the stock blade has two pieces you press together and then tilt awy from the arm. The rainX blade wants you to slide and click into place, which is smaller than my wiper arm. Help!!

Here is a zinger for ya. They changed the arms again in 2008.

If you have rain-x you dont need the wipers.

UPDATE:

RainX does make a replacement blade for the 06 wiper Arm. Deal is it's only available thru your dealer. Mine were 18. and some change each instead of 30 each!!!
