PM's replied to. So, how pathetic am I? I buy these awesome new wipers, but garage the Forester and drove the Outback at the first hint of rain

They have arrived! Can't wait to see they look in person/on the vehicle.

Thanks again Ben for the discount and fast shipping.

These things are awesome! Just got them today and put them on right away. Very cool design and shipping was quick. Will see how they hold up over time.

X2! I installed them Friday but today was the first day I got a chance to drive around in the rain. These things are sooo quiet and hold up quite well at highway speeds.

Quality stuff.

Never though I would go gah-gah over something as minute as a pair of wipers, but these rank up there as one of my favorite mods. LOL

As said, they are super quiet. Got a chance to test them out last evening.

Perfect coverage. No high spots on the leading edges (I hate streaks). Someone actually put some thoughts into the design and it shows.

PS
Thanks for the cool stickers, Ben.

Just going to post up again that these are possibly the best wipers I've used so far, they fix both of the major issues I had with the beam type michelin wipers (icon copies). The beam type was very tall and pushed the wiper arm up away from the windshield which looked a little funny, with these the wiper arm goes right into the body of the wiper and has a plastic bit to hide it. Also the beam type had hard plastic ends that weren't flexible enough so they would miss the edges at certain points on the windshield, these subaru ones don't miss anything and fit perfectly. I really like these, and being able to get just the refills is nice rather than spending another 30-40$ for a new set of wipers. Someone definitely must have taken these on as a sort of pet project.

I put alot of miles on, especially where i get massive amounts of bug goop on my windshield, so I'll post up how these hold up over time. I really liked how well my michelins lasted (longest lasting wipers I've had so far and best wipe) so we'll see if these hold up better/worse.

Got mine in yesterday, they seem to be bigger than the 06 stock wipers. I almost got a chance to use them, it spit rain for a few moments then stopped.

OK finally got a chance to install these and take some pics. I have them at the bottom of the page here:

ScoobyMods Aero wiper info

If you think about it these are cheaper than the Icons and a lot sexier :) Thanks for the quick shipping Ben :)
