HONDA OEM wiper blades

Can anyone post the contact details for a mail order HONDA parts place that sells replacement wiper blades?

I can recommend Bernardi and College Hills as well.

After going through just about every site out there, I ended up buying mine at the local dealership. Shipping was more expensive than just paying full price. YMMV.

there's quite a bit of confusion on these OEM refills between the 07, 08, 09's so might want to go to the dealership for this. each time i got screwed. hahaha.

even my dealer screwed it up for me when i ordered the 09 one but atleast easy to return.

It's not hard to pull out the old blades from the arms and replace those. I buy a pair of rainX blades about every 8-10 months and it's worked fine for me.

I recommend silicone wipers. Performance/visibility is better than rubber and last much longer. I have them on my other car for 2-3 years which is stored outside (wipers usually don't last that long in the California sun) and it still works like new.

Im thinking about getting mine directly from the local dealer as well. Can someone give a few pointers (pics if possible) on replacing the refill blades.

Thumbs up Refill please

Hey PCS,
I went to the dealership and got the replacements for 7.00 apeice alittle pricey but they won't a be around for ever!
If you get them off the net from were ever the shipping spanks ya unless you buy afew items then the shipping a little more resonable. Bernardi's has specials and good pricing all the time.. Bump for Bernardi's they done me right.

smart move, consumer reports once did a thing on wiper blades,
they found dealer wiper blades lasted much longer then the ones
at autozone and pepboys.
I had my original blades for 3.5 yrs before I changed them, and my rear wiper blade is still Intact & on my fit!

Have any idea what year was that CR report? my 17 year index couldn't find it.
And since most wiper suppliers cater to both Honda and aftermarket thats not very believeable.

$7 each or $7 for both front? I get mine for $5 each, they'll continue to produce these as they are a maintenance item. Its kind of like air filters and oil filters.
