Re: Equinox windshield wiper blades

Also picked up a 24" for the drivers side and 19" for the passenger side. They work great all around and the 14" on the rear didn't clog with ice and stiffen-up like the original rear wiper - worked a lot better this past winter. They're super quiet and wipe clean and look fantastic. Easy install. Got them online.



Hope this saves others time...
I'm currently using a 17" wiper on the rear without any clearance issues. I don't know why Chevy equipped it with only a 15" blade.

And yes, the frameless blades are worth every penny in snowy conditions. I'm using the cheap Michelin frameless wipers sold at Wal-Mart.
