Best Of The Wipers, The - Wipers (The)

Advantages: Very efficient.
Disadvantages: Looks silly in colours.

.... . Race X history is a good place to start, well, they have been on the go for a while now, and are getting a good name. The company sells a range of kit that the younger generation require for making their motors look better, and although these "show" items look good, they are not really what I would call improvements. That said, when it comes to wiper blades, they seem to have come up with the goods, The quality of the rubber seems very good, and the clean sweep is as good as any "original equipment". You will also find over 300 other styling items for sale, including pedal pads, gear knobs & gaiters, locking wheel nuts etc. Plus the usual array of tax disc holders & "go faster" Aluminium look rubber mats, and of course induction filters.

Disadvantages: Expensive.

...Trico NEOFORM Blades are the newest in wiper blade design, and have only recently been introduced. These are also known as flat or beam blades. These Trico NeoForm Beam Blades, represent the future of the wiper industry, in both performance and also styling. They are designed to compliment the aesthetics of today's vehicles. Wiper blades have always had a bad press, they are only fitted when strips of ruber are hanging off your old ones, or for the MOT test, they should be up there with the designer polish and ICE equipment, they are certainly a lot more important. In the event of an accident, the Police take note of any contributing factors, including how clean you windscreen is, how good your wipers are etc. It is very important to have decent blades for safety. NeoForm blades are not the exact ones fitted by car... Read review
