Windshield Wipers - Silblades - Land Rovers Only

PanamaDisco · 12-06-2007, 01:53 PM

Need some help, I order 3, 13” Silblades for my D90 from Amazon ($14 each) to save a couple of bucks plus free shipping and just realize through another post on a different forum that I need adapters to fit them properly on to the arms. Does someone know where I can purchase these adapters??...or the only way to get them is to buy the Silblades from EE ($18 each plus shipping) ?? (On their website they do state that the blades come with the adapters)

Don't know about the adaptors but I can tell you the Silblades are worth every penny. The sun here in S. Florida is rough on rubber blades and I was replacing them every 4 to 6 months. I put a set on my disco and lr3 a couple years ago and they're still like new.

I have run Sill Blades since E.E. first started selling them, about 4 years ago, and they have held up well in the heat as well as here in Colorado.

That's good to hear... If I can get another 2 years out of mine they will have paid for themselves many times over.

They are deffinately a great blade on a curved windshield, but, I think they are a bit of a waste of money on a flat windscreen as in a Def or series.
