where to put a wiper thread ??? why not here

I have been a huge fan of our PIAA Super Silicone wiper blades for some time, this is why. Last night I was over at a friends house he looked pretty PO'd and he was cleaning his truck. He claimed a large bug made a valiant effort to get all the way through his windshield so, he was washing things up. I know it's just a big bug splat but, JUST last week he ran through a construction zone that splattered tar all up the front of his truck. He had to use Lacquer Thinner to clean it all off the windshield and followed it up with a 50/50 alcohol and water wipe down and then finally Windex. So, at that point that windshield was as clean as it could be and the initial silicone treatment that comes with the blades was removed. fast forward to last night and after just a week of wiper use you can clearly see the blades have re-deposited a new thin layer of silicone back onto the window to repel water JUST like they claim. Very cool.

They are available for most cars and trucks and can be found using this LINK

here's the pictorial proof

PIAA wiper will not work on
the E39 due to the fact that
the center pin is too large to
fit in the OE cam lock.

Ok, then why are you teasing us by posting this in the M5 forum?

I had these on my volvo s60. They last a very long time and its like having rain-x all the time. I still used rain-x with it though, works great. They do not look as attractive as the Bosch ones and are not as quiet.

Frankly I hate the pattern that rainx and these wipers leave on my windshield! When it rains I run the wipers, no problems. Not sure what the silicone solves....
