I bought a set and cut them to size but the rubber blade kept sliding out of
the plastic base. I discovered this in the interstate in London, Ont during
the hardest downpour that I have ever seen, on my way to Buffalo in '97
How do you get around the loose blade, or did I buy the one brand that isn't
anchored along the length of the blade. As I recall, the plastic base was
crimped at the end to hold the blade. I think I ended up supergluing them
in and it worked ok.
