Question Opinions: Shiney Windshield Wiper blades

Is anyone using those sometimes bling looking double windshield wipers?. You can find them at most auto parts stores, and i was just wondering if they worked.

Some of them came on my 4runner when I first bought it. I have to say, they worked great. They looked cheestastic but they did work. I removed them as soon as I could. If you don't mind the looks, then go for it. I guess I hated mine because they were chrome and not black.

i think you can buy black ones now or maybe like a shiny black finish. They did work good for me.

They were crap in the '80s and there hasn't been an improvement so they still are crap. PIAA makes some nice blades and they last a while and you can buy replacement inserts.
