How is the fitment for those who have bought these? I just bought a set for my wife's Max and I've noticed the angle isn't quite right on the driver's side. I'll try to get a picture up later, but to best explain: when the blade comes up, it is not parallel to the edge of the windshield -- it's close to the edge at the bottom, but a few inches away at the top. When the wipers are off, the blade is angled toward the firewall, instead of strait across the bottom like the passenger wiper.
Other than they the work great. Didn't freeze up during the last snow storm we had, and work well at highway speeds. I bought a set for my Infiniti G20, but the driver's side lifts in the middle above 70mph. The Excel+ I had before never lifted, but froze up often in snow or freezing rain.

I had them on my 2003 pathfinder and loved them. I tried them on my 02 silverado and I didnt care for them to much because on the passanger side the windsheild had a large curvature and the blade would stick out and not wipe good. If your windshield is fairly flat the will work good.

Same They have been on the car for about 2 months now in this crappy NE weather and there good, Although if you start noticing that there not wiping good, It just needs to be cleaned. But if your a clean freak like me with washing your car and wiping the blades off after you should be good.

I have them on a Ford E250 Van and hate them. The drivers side lifts off at high speed even though their suppose to stay tight against the glass at freeway speed ... passenger side isn't much better. Maybe it's because of the Ford windshield being so upright
