Windshield wiper covers

Living in Texas the sun and heat take a toll on everything! As many will know replacement wipers are Expensive! I haven't figured out how to post pictures from my iPad but will try to explain my easy wiper covers.

Buy a foam swim noodle with the hole down the middle, split one side with a razor knife, cut a length about 2-3 inches longer than your wiper. Lift wiper and slide tube between it and the windshield. Now your wiper is protected, won't stick to the windshield, and should last a lot longer.

I used a bright green noodle so I will be reminded to remove it before driving. Previously I had used sections of 1" foam pipe insulation which is black, i forgot to remove it a couple of times so I switched to the bright green.

The noodles are cheap and can be found a many stores that sell swim gear. Since its late in the season the noodles may be hard to find, bet Amazon has them year round.
