Several months ago RockAuto had a huge buyout of replacement wipers. I picked up a couple pairs of Bosch for a few bucks each. I happened to be at O'Riellys a short time later where they had mail in rebate forms on the counter. I ended up getting a $15 VISA gift card for my less than $10 purchase.

Link to RockAuto closeout items on G37, scroll to bottom for wipers.

Pep Boys, Autozone, etc... usually wherever I can get the best price on the best wipers.

I got Goodyear brand wipers at Costco for $4.99 each. They don't streak and otherwise work fine. It being Costco and all, one could really take advantage of their return policy with something like wipers.

Perhaps?

How much was the dealer parts department charging?

When I needed wipers on my previous 06 G35 the dealer parts charged me $7.50 each for the rubber inserts so the wiper blade replacement cost me $15.00

They even put them in at no charge while I drank their coffee and ate their chocolate chip cookies

Not too much more, tho.. I always get the inserts from the dealer and replace them myself. The OEM blades are extremely durable and keep even pressure on the windshield nearly forever. It's just the rubber insert that wears out, so I find it most economical and effective to just replace the inserts every couple years. Last time I bought a pair earlier this year they cost just under $20.

PIAA silicons from Amazon. They last forever, like maybe two years, and work better than any other blade I have tried. The fitment guide says they don't fit, but they do if you buy the correct lengths. Mine are coming up on two years old and they still work fine and make no noise. I think they are still made in Japan, too. I am not sure what kind of evidence it would take to get me to buy another kind of blade. On our old RDX, I ordered them and put them on within a few days of getting the vehicle, throwing away brand new OEM blades.

Purchased those Goodyears at Costco too for $4.99 each. I used rainx for years and I'm more than happy with these.

I've gone through RainX, Bosch, and PIAA on my wife's Acura MDX in the last 12 months. They all streak on the drivers side. Tried the Costco Goodyears no streak, and significantly less than all the others.

For $10, you could take them back for a refund every 6 months and get a fresh set

The OEM Infiniti wipers are what I have been happy with since I have had the car and last a good amount of time. Total is around $22 i think and they have indicators on the wipers that turn red, yellow, or green displaying the condition of the wipers.
