Amazing Deal on Wipers
Hi all,
I just picked up a set of wipers for under $10. Here is how:
1. Goto Rockauto.com (they are a well known wholesaler)
2. Select your car
3. Choose the wipers (they have a sale on a ton of wipers including BMW 5 series)
4. Use 1363112011155106 for 5% off.
The company making the wipers is Trico.
I picked up 2 sets for my 535XI and 2 for my X3, all for $27 shipped.

wow! that is an awesome deal.... I was actually inquiring about wiper blades from my local "stealership" & they quoted me $90 for a set.... CRAZY!
Have you received your wipers? how is the quality?

OK, there must have been something wrong, because when I go in and select the left and right they are ~ $17.00 each plus shipping, the discount scored me .63 cents. (08 535) The dealer sells the replacements for under 20.00... I must have missed something here. For sure under $10.00 is a great deal!
... Never mind, I figured it out using the drop down for the close out. I ordered two pair, just hope they fit only because it's a bit confusing as to the selections to take with the attachment system.
I ordered the original not sure what the Beam style is. I couldn't really tell a difference
TRICO Part # 2414B & 2314B

For the BMW, the regular / traditional style appears to be the OE Beam style. For other vehicles (eg Lexus), you will have to specify beam style to get the beam style.

I took the oe or first ones listed. The beam style looked to work as well they were the first listed on the lower group. It's been bugging me all day cause I really have no idea...
