    [QUOTE=MTN Ranger;123869]Our Saturn Outlook uses the same blade as the Volt. I bought TRICO NEOFORM TEFLON TR162515 blades and they are exact replacements and work great on the Outlook. Later this year when I need to get them for the Volt, I will get them. $42.63 for two with shipping. QUOTE]

    That seems to be the going rate for them... (https://www.wipers123.com/product_di...&modelhid=Volt) - I usually purchase once every spring or fall for all my vehicles and get coupons and free shipping. Its very easy to shop.

    Can you simply get inserts? With my Camry Hybrid, I can buy just the rubber inserts from the dealer. The OEM blades work better than any aftermarket blades I've found, and the insert from the dealer is just as cheap as aftermarket blades.

    These are new type of wiper called blades where the rubber and frame are attached. You need to replace the whole section. The message before yours has a good price.

    I use the Goodyear (a'la Costco) on almost all my vehicles. The Volt OE blades look exactly like them. Good wipers on all but my SAAB. They chatter on it.

    Just got an email from wipers123 and they're running additional rebates right now...so they're even cheaper. May want to check out the glass treatment too...I use the neoform/glass treatment combo and it works great. That said, I did just replace because the drought and extreme heat in WI this past summer absolutely dry-rotted them. Good time to do some maintenance!
