    Silly question but what's best replacement wiper blades on Fleebay. I see OEMs for $40 including shipping.

    Rain x! Check your local big box stores for clearance sales. The red store usually clears them out once a month.

    SM-G935P ?

    I will look in to SM-G935P however I need the complete kit as it seems previous owner has installed cheap rubber only blades that seems to be missing metal back frame.

    SM-G935P is the model of the mobile phone the poster is using. It is an annoying feature of the mobile PC app that appends the model number of the mobile phone to each post as a signature. It can be turned off, but most seem to not bother.

    Annoying? Yes.

    I just bought these on Amazon for $18:


    They're well reviewed and one of the least expensive. They work great, but I've only had them on the car for a couple of weeks, so can't comment on durability. Could go through two sets and cost the same as one of the "premium" brands.

    Note that applying RainX (or similar) to your windsheild and wipers will likely double their usable life. In fact, if you have old wipers, you might try applying it to your windsheild and wipers and see if the performance is still acceptable.
