Hi,

Anyone know what wiper blade I should buy for my 2007 Freestyle. Got Tripledge 24" and 20" from Walmart today, since they are the only ones suggested for 2007 Freestyle according to Walmart's guide book, but could not figure out how to install them. Seems 2007 Freestyle has some special adapter for wiper blade, which is not listed in Tripledge's installation instructions.

Thanks,
Sven

When I changed mine, I used Rainx OEM styles. They work well.

Mike,

Thanks for the reply, but your car is 2006 Freestyle. I heard there is some difference between the 2006 and 2007 models regarding the wiper blades?

Thanks,
Sven

Just wanted to share this to those who may be looking to replace their windshield wipers. Costco is selling the goodyear assurance wipers for $7.99 each. I believe its the same 20" and 24" for all freestyle models (as indicated by the guide book). That's pretty cheap for $8 each. BTW I saw this in Costco Glendora California. So you might want to check out your local Costcos.

I went to the wal-mart tire center in our super wal-mart.... The blades were $3 each and installed for free. The blades come in a generic box but are made by the same company that makes the rain-x blades. Hope this helps

Hi all,

I want to follow up on this topic since my blades are not cutting it anymore. Have we arrived at a consensus on which wipers fit the '07 FS?

Are any brands better than others? I live in Canada and winter is pretty harsh. I sure don't want to pay too much for wipers... Brand names at Canadian Tire were overpriced starting at $23 :roll:

Thanks for the tips!

I got Valeo SL-24 and SL-20 Gen2 Premium All-Season Bracketless Wiper Blade from Amazon. Currently about $5 each. Installed without any problems.
