Piaa 96153 Aero Vogue Silicone Wiper Blade - 21"" 525mm (Pack of 1)"

Replacement wiper for 2016 Acura RLX driver side.

The new aerodynamic design makes this unit have low profile.

PIAA 96130 will not fit 2014 Toyota 4Runner's rear placement. The locking mechanism is too thin to also fit the rear wiper attachment.But the silicone can be taken off and to install in old wiper.

It uses a J-hook attachment. The description doesn't explain that. The J-hook doesn't fit my wiper arm. One of the pictures in the description shows some kind of adapter, but it wasn't included in the package. I went to PIAA's web site and sent a message asking about the missing adapter, and they ignored me. So I had to order an adapter from Amazon for another 8 bucks to be able to use the wiper blade.

Very quiet and looks sleek, no streaking at all, applied correctly with the included prep. Will keep coming back to these!

I've use used this product for 6 years now, and this is only my second time replacing them. These are by far the longest lasting blades I've used in my 30 years of life! Other products have only lasted 1-1.5 years.

I have had bad luck in the past with the performance and service life of the wipers on my cars and trucks. I used name branded wipers and while they worked OK these Piaa wipes are the next level. They have built in silicone material that deposits it on the windshield each pass of the wiper along with a prep wipe. While they are definitely more expensive than the average wiper initially the rubber blade sections can be replaced at a reduced cost vs average wiper replacements. In the past 2 years I have upgraded all 4 of my vehicles with these. Highly recommended.

I recently decided to try PIAA's silicone wipers, and this is the model I chose. Intending to order directly from PIAA, I had technical difficulty with their order page. When I contacted PIAA, they said the simplest solution was to order through amazon, and so I did.They arrived right before departure for a week long road trip from New Mexico, through Arizona, Nevada, and California in the month of April when weather patterns in the intermountain west can be volatile. When the package arrived, one wiper had clearly been previously opened. Neither wiper included the windshield silicone prep pad, nor the selection of adaptors to assure the blades would fit on any car—both of which PIAA provides with each wiper blade they sell.Knowing I couldn't possibly get amazon to respond in time for my departure, I chose to call PIAA again. I explained my problem, and my urgency. We both understood that the issue was amazon's responsibility, not PIAA's. Nonetheless, the customer care person at PIAA made the gracious offer to send the adaptor kit and the prep packets to help me out. I suggested that priority mail was significantly faster than UPS, in my experience, and the agent at PIAA agreed to send the package priority mail that Friday afternoon. Both of us were aware of the unlikely chance that the package would make it from Oregon to New Mexico before my departure Monday afternoon, but they made the effort anyway.Astonishingly, the parts DID arrive midday Monday, and I left on the most amazing adventure with these new silicone blades on the car. High praise to PIAA's attention to detail and willingness to satisfy their customers! amazon, not so much.So far, the silicone prep on the windshield has been as impressive as the wiper blades themselves. Time will tell how they stack up in extended use.

The media could not be loaded.  Had high expectations for these as there are lots of articles and videos on the internet talking about the advantages of silicone. Easy to install and came with a wipe to apply to the widnshield, at first it worked wonders, silent, smooth and completely wiped the windshield but after 3 months it has begun to streak with the passenger side completely missing a big section of the windshield. These are 2.5x more expensive than Michelin ones you can get at Costco and lasts just as long.. very disappointed.

Forms to the windshield well. No lifted areas. I can notice a big difference between this an a conventional wiper. Includes a wipe - like rain-x. Like the sleek look of this vs the ST. Got the smaller blade on sale so it justified the upgrade for me.

excellent product so far

I gave a poor review earlier due to one blade arriving and the other nor expected for around 4 weeks later. Disappointed, yes. I received the second one and installed. So far, so good. They are very good out of the gate and time will tell because I spent more money expecting longer life. stay tuned.

Six months later, still like new. Just put your wipers in the service position and wipe the blades with a towel to clear off dust and grime from the blades. Note: In freezing weather, after exiting a car wash, some water will freeze in the blades and prevent proper operation. Either let it drain, blow it off, or plan to park in a warm garage.
