You can't buy directly from cosway if you're not a member. also, you don't have to go to that building near wisma genting, you can get it from any of their stockist nationwide.

Yes the wiper carries a lifetime guarantee because it's silicon based, not rubber.

I would still prefer the PIAA silicon wiper blades coz they're made from much better silicon from Japan, the frame is fully carbon fiber so it's lighter, more aerodynamic, looks much better. but the wipers cost a bomb la.. RM100+ per piece. or was it RM200+. but the silicon blades are replaceble.

 

[deftons]

how to differentiate between silicon and rubber..?which brand of wiper is made of silicon and witht he reasonable price?

 

[simplythebest]

What size are you guys using? 17" 21" , proton stock is 17" right :rolleyes:

 

[e-jump]

if got wiping squick sound, i think its not the wiper problem
it maybe some additive u pot on the windscreen that make the wiperblade sticky
try wash ur windscreen with gLo etc [those cuci pinggan liquid]
it might help :lol:

Cosway Dura-Edge is different grade from the RM69 model. Cosway one won't last long and it is very noisy.

 

[ezwong2002]

so... any other users which has used this.. and proven to be as good as the advertisement?

 

[acbc]

I'm Bosch wipers, after 6 months - noisy n uneven wipes. Suspect could be wipers as I have tried cleaning the windshield with car shampoo / glass cleaner / wiper liquid n others...

Even those ultra cheap wipers from Brothers can last up to 1 year for me - RM 10 only...

i have been using this dura-edge rm69 for 3 months. when the sales personel from the company install it, he wet my windscreen with the sprinkle & let the wiper running for about 15-20 seconds. have to do that becoz of the material HTV Silicone. any way i'm happy with the result. No need for me to pull up my wiper when i park my car outside. another thing is the wiper will make a layer on your windscreen that make it clearer especially when in the heavy rain.
Yes, silicone wiper will make some noise but only when the windscreen is too dry & under hot weather and that sound just for a while. for me this dura- edge RM69 is worth to have it.

 

[cyclonite]

Even the BEST dura edge grade wipers can't beat the PIAA one.

 

[Dremel]

Dura Edge is ok for it's price lar.. how come you wanna compare it
with RM-3-digit PIAA?

 

[cipan_supercas]

me, just using cap ayam brand wiper....
i know i can't compare to PIAA n Dura Edge ....:(

 

[S_04]

yes i was in kakimoto sunway yesterday ..a lot of ppl came to buy Dura-edge they said log life warantee........................
