Third party wipers for model y

[WyomingEV]

Anyone out there suggest a 3rd party wiper blade for your Model Y? I have tried a RainX and Michelin and can't seem to make them fit....

Any reason why you don't like the Tesla wipers? Those are pretty inexpensive in comparison to 3rd party if I recall.

My cheapness, didn't want to pay 25 per unit vs 10 to 15 per at walmart....

I like the PIAA SiTech wipers. I have PIAA SuperSilicones on all my other cars. They've been way more durable and dependable than any other brand I've used. I've managed 5 years of service out of a set on one of my cars that sits outside all the time....

I didn't like the OEM Tesla blades, becuase they couldn't even last a single PacNW rainy season... The only thing I didn't like about the SiTech, was that I didn't know you couldn't replace the wiper inserts like my other PIAA blades. But it's been well over a year, and they are still going strong, after many, many rain storms.

I have posted this on many occasions. These are a direct fit without any adapters and without any type of interference. I have had these replacements on for about a year now. Have worked perfectly since day 1. Will be buying the same when time comes.

Note: I have not tried these (yet), but I tried another brand and had trouble getting it installed.

But found these which I also have not tried (yet) but were a bit cheaper than the XTechnor's

See this link for a DIY solution. The hardest part is cutting the notch in the rubber

Wiper Blade Replacement Tesla Model Y

I got the PIAA 26 and 20 inch blades. It seems that the 20 inch blade is too big for my 2021 and creates a large thunk every time it goes down. It appears the 20 inch blade is hitting part of the hood. I’m going to try a 19 inch PIAA blade (though they seem to be in short supply) and hopefully...

PIAA SiTech FTW. Nothing terribly wrong with the OEM Tesla wipers, but they don't perform as smoothly in light rain - at least in my experience.
