Where can I find Anco C26UB Contour Universal Wiper Blade - 26" Quiet, clean and long-lastingBy AlexanderI bought Anco Contours for my ES330 a little over a year ago at the suggestion of someone at a local parts store. He was right -- they work well in rain and snow, are very quiet, and are still going strong after over a year. (Yes, I've read the recommendations to change blades after 6 months, certainly after a year, but I haven't see any degradation and am not going to change them until I do.)A few weeks ago, a storm was coming and I wanted to replace the OEM wipers on my 2008 Prius with a beam-blade pair, since the Contours have been so great. Unfortunately, the nearby auto parts store didn't carry the Contours, and I didn't have time to order them, so I bought Trico Neoforms instead, hoping they'd be as good. They weren't; during my drive to NY from Boston during the storm, the driver's side cleared well, but the passenger's side left a huge swath of mush. There was also a pronounced squeak most of the time, which was especially annoying at lower speeds when the road noise didn't mask it. I found myself turning the intermittent wiping off and using the wipers only when enough precip had built up on the windshield to make it necessary -- then a quick wipe and off again. It was so annoying that when I got to NY, I immediately looked for a store that carried the Contours. Fortunately, I found one and bought them the very next day. What a difference! Just as with my ES, they make no noise and clean beautifully. Next time I'll plan ahead and save myself from throwing out $40.0 of people found the following review helpful. » More Information about Anco C26UB Contour Universal Wiper Blade - 26".Thursday, June 30, 2011
