Rain X Wipers won't lay flush

I tried the Rain X wipers size 22 (as per the spec book), but they will not lie flat on the windshield. Is there a trick to installing them?

Silblade Flexblades for the Front
Silblade for the Rear

Fit great, work great, much better than stock without metal for the ice/snow to stick.

I ended up getting the Rain X "Latitude" wipers. Both 22"s. They wipe off the rain from the windshield nice and cleanly.

I guess the real test is how long they last. All wipers work when they're new.

I don't use Rain X, but I do use these wipers. They last a long time.
Every time I go in for scheduled service I have to remind LR take the $75 wipers off of the scheduled service...

The Bosch ones were nice, but didn't last long for me.

Has anyone tried the trico neoforms? They're the new frameless style and I have them on my Mazda 3 and they're great...that windshield is pretty curved though. Curious how they perform on LR's

As far as the dealer charges...:stupid:
