TundraGeneral discussion forum for the 2007 and later Toyota Tundra.
This is a discussion thread titled "Rain X wiper blades", within the Tundra forum, part of the Truck Forums category.
The blades on my '07 Tundra look different from anything I've seen before. I can't see how I'd put an aftermarket replacement on. If you can talk to this specific subject please comment.
I'm dumb, real dumb, and please write real slow cause ain't that good at readin neither.

That didn't come out right. I put spaces between each letter and double spaced between each word to make it look like I was speaking slow.
Oh well. Don't sweat it. The aftermarkets will look just as goofy as our originals. I have almost 12,000 miles on mine and they are like new. I can't count how many times I ran them across an icy windshield without damaging them. When it comes time for replacements, I'm gonna pony up the extra money and get originals put on.

My blades @!#$%^& out after 12,000 rainy Florida miles. I just paid $65.83 for a new set at the dealer. Someone please put an aftermarket link on here where I can get '07 and newer Tundra blades because I've never seen anything as "goofy" as these blades.
Guntech, thanks for writin slow, I still don't get it, I"m from Floriduh

A little cheaper the OEM Toyota Blades, so I've had them installed for about 5 weeks and no problems. It rains here everyday so they are getting a workout!
These Rain-X blades for $35-$40 can't be the same blades that I just bought for my wifes Highlander at Target for $19 dollars, can they? I have bought her expensive ones before and they started streaking so I went cheap this time.
I saw the Rain-X Latitude blades at Target for about $17 each but I still don't know how they would be installed on my Tundra since the fitting portion doesn't match. Can anyone who's actually installed them tell me how they did it?

RainX wipers was wasted money for me. Lasted me the same as any other wiper blade.
Yearly replacement with decent wiper blades using the RainX washer fluid during bad weather and Bug Shield washer fluid for the summer is the best combination. But whatever you do, don't use the cheap blue washer fluid as they tend to leave whitish blue residue when it dries that will clog your washer nozzles.
Prestone washer fluid is much better than Rain X washer fluid. I have used both and once you use Prestone (it's yellow) you will never use another washer fluid. Walmart has it for sale.

Yup cant go wrong with Bosch. They are expensive but there good. Im going to keep my factory ones until they start messing up. ill prob get the toyota brand ones again b./c I think you can just get the wiper inserts for like 5-10bucks each. Im not sure though. Anyone know for certain?
First heavy snow storm in Buffalo took out my drivers side wiper. replacement from dealer was $38.00 - ridiculous
Dealer parts guy says current Tundra blade can not use refilled and Toyota at this point has no intention of designing and selling a refillable blade for the Tundra.
