I got some rain-x brand wiper blades. first it looked like the 20s were too small when I compared them so I returned them and got 21s. apparently they were longer and you can see where the old 20s left an impression over the years. Has anyone used these for a while with no problems? I dont want them to ruin the seal around the windshield, but they barely touch the edge, and so far I like them.

I've had the rain-x wiper blades on my Aurora for the past 3 months now and they work great. My friend has had them on his truck now for 6 months with no noticable problems (drying out, jumping across the windshield that sort of thing)8) . To fix your wipers from hitting the mouldings take the bolts of the wiper arms. Then Use I fairly thick common screwdriver to pry the arms off. Now under the wiper arm is a round plastic piece that has an area that is raised up to properly set the wiper arms. Use an adjustable wrench, grab it firm and pull the piece out just enough to get it loose but dont break it then take it off by hand. Just remeber how the piece was set before you took it off so you can reposition it so the wiper arms are lower.
Or you can adjust the wipers at the actual wiper motor (the bolt that connects to the pivot assembly) and reposition it there. I myself actually had to reposioton it at the wiper arms because mine went 5 inches off my windshield . No they dont even come close to hitting those mouldings. :cry:
That Aurora is pretty nice I bet.
