Anco91-16 AeroVantage Wiper Blade - 16", (Pack of 1)

Quick delivery and great products. Installed was very easy.

It rests a bit higher from the glass than the OEM wiper blade but does the job. Anyone wanting to do the same thing should take note of the instructions I found on a Cadillac forum site:" You have to apply "upward" pressure on the thicker end of the plastic cover, and then slide the entire cover about 1/3" to the left and lift - the plastic cover will now remove. Replace the blade. Then, reinstall the cover by sliding the "skinny end" tab into the wiper blade, slide right, and gently force the plastic cover back down." And another important point followed this one: " you do have to be very careful to disengage the shroud from the area around the motor shaft first. Then, slide the shroud left (as you are looking at the tailgate) to keep the L-shaped plastic retainer prong from getting hung up on the metal wiper blade frame. Re-installation of the shroud is also tricky, in that you first have to make sure the L-shaped retainer prong is placed, and then GENTLY push the shroud over the two locating tabs by the motor shaft. This is where I broke mine, by pushing too hard to lock it in. In doing so, I pushed so hard to get it to fit that the L-shaped plastic retainer hit the metal wiper frame and broke off. " Using the advice I was able to remove and replace the plastic shroud plus the wiper without damage.

One size fits all means you have to think a little to install.

I'm rating this wiper blade 5-star because I have to give this review something and I also purchased the same 24" and 22" versions of ANCO AeroVantage wiper blades for my windshield, so I'm going off of that opinion. Those wipers are still very new, but were easy to install and have worked really well so far so I'm assuming that this 17" would work well too.HOWEVER - Amazon states that these 17" wiper blades fit the rear of a 2001 Volvo V70 XC and they do not. It seems that the rear wiper on my car does not have a conventional attachment. I tried everything that I could think to install the wiper blade, but the design of this wiper blade does not fit the design of the rear wiper on my car. The front wiper blades installed quickly and easily, so I was very frustrated. The great thing about Amazon was that I was able to return the wiper blade for a refund. Unfortunately, I'm still trying to find a wiper blade that will fit the rear wiper on my car and I'm not sure if I can trust Amazon's assessment for that specific part.

I struggled whether I should write this. I am hoping to assist others who may find the same problem I had. I received a different wiper blade than the AeroVantage. The Anco I received is the G91638 Kwik Connect. Purchased for a crossover vehicle rear window. Testing after installation showed it was hitting the rear window washer nozzle at the top of the window. Upon measuring the blade it is oversize at 16.5" long. I also found the pivot where it mounts to be off center by about 1/2 inch. Therefore there is a long end & a short end, when measured from that pivot. (I'm NOT referring to the hole that some wiper arms use for a mount: The hole IS on center). So... This comes with a plastic adapter that I don't need. It's for a different size wiper arm. But upon inspection, I found the tiny flimsy plastic attachment piece at the pivot is removable. I remove and reversed the mounting direction of the plastic piece. That put the shorter end pointing outward of the wiper's arc of travel. Now it clears the washer pod by a half inch. I hope someone find this helpful.

A few days ago I ordered a different brand that was supposed to fit. It didn't. Thought i would order another with the hopes of a fit. After placing my order I read in the Q&A that this one would not fit my vehicle. I immediately tried to cancel my order, but was informed it was too late. Well, I am glad that it was. It arrived today and I went out to my car (was at work), and this sucker snapped in like it was at home and replacing the plastic cover was obvious and easy as well. Haven't had to use it yet. But, heck, it was like $7 or $8 bucks so how can I go wrong!

I use this to replace the rear wiper on my 2012 Chevrolet Equinox 2LT. The original (factory) blade seemed to last forever - especially down here in the Texas heat. When it finally went, I replaced it with this ANCO and it held up for about the same time. I use Rain-X blades on the front windshield and have thought about trying those on the rear windshield, however all of the websites about the Equinox say use ANCO or Bosch for some reason. The only negative I have to say about these blades is that they are somewhat "streaky" and once they start to go 'bad', they need to be replaced ASAP. It goes from perfectly working wiper blade to no wiper blade with incredible speed. Still though - for the price and for how long it lasts it's hard to beat.

I needed front blades and rear blades for a Prius and a RAV4, and none of the sizes were the same. So what happens when you go to a store to shop for blades? They have some sizes but not all. To get what you need you may have to purchase blades from different manufacturers and hunt for them in several stores. You want them to be from one manufacturer so they would look right on the vehicle. And some blades were pricey. So my solution was to check Amazon. Glad I did. I got all the blades I needed from ANCO. They look good on the cars, they were easy to install and they do a fine job plus they were reasonably priced. Amazon Prime got them to me quickly. Next time I will save a lot of time, effort and coin by coming back to Amazon and ANCO.

Tengo 1 mes con el producto y funciona perfectamente, limpia bien con lluvia fuerte, no hace ruido, fue fácil de instalar. Recomendado.
