That seems like a really stupid idea.

lol. i literally just thought of this same idea two days ago.. was wondering if it existed anywhere, or if it would even work.


i guess if it actually keeps the blade flexible then it seems like a decent idea?

If you're using decent blades, they should be pretty soft even when it's cold outside. It's not like the wipers are going to help melt the ice (is that what people are thinking? lol)

oh pls nobody buy this garbage. i can already see the warranty claims or customer complaints to car co's when this shit goes wrong and fucks their windshield, or worse yet shorts out and sets the car up in flames.

haha, guess it keeps the blades from freezing and causing that streak on the windshield that is always magically at eye level.

Right? Anytime the blades start to fuck up, it's always right where you're looking Never the passenger side!

Re: Heated Wiper Blades wat

I had this one time where my entire windshield froze up... I pulled the lever to start the wipers, then heard a screeching noise... I was like... WHO THE FUCK STOLE MY PASSENGER WIPER...

I get out, and the fucking wiper somehow unclipped off the wiper arm

Heh strange idea - even stranger that Home Depot is carrying it. That's a one and done for sure.

I have a heated defroster part in my windshield where the wipers sit that works well in the cold but I don't think this is worth the purchase or potential headaches.

These will be all over Brampton once they end up at Dr. Flea's and Liquidation World.

Range Rovers have squiggly lines going along the entire front windshield to do this job...
