Windshield vipers Q.

[<<<<]

Is 5th gen Windshield Vipers single beam design like Bosh or Michelin or multipoint with refill option similar to 4th gen but low profile?

Yes you can get refills for the OEM wipers, if that is what you are asking? I have a pair of replacement rubber inserts sitting in my garage right now, only ~3-4 bucks each too.

Same design as any wiper blades with 6 spring points? Not new one curve blade?

If I am understanding your question correctly, the OEM ones are the old school kind with the multiple spring points. It's definitely not those really floppy aftermarket ones that feel like they have no back bone. Sorry for the lack of a better description, I don't really study wiper blades designs much Hope that helps!

Spring assisted is what I thought. Sry for cofusion. From distance OEM looked slick almost like 1 peace which brought my question up. Thanks for help.

So...I should have just replaced the rubber blade instead of throwing away the original wiper assembly? Oops.

It's "one piece" wiper. They don't flex like Bosch "Icon" does but do a good job anyway, probably much better the multi-point wipers.
