Great idea and a good price for those travelling to sunnier climes.

The addition of a wine bottle cork or similar under the arm to hold the blade off the glass would be a good idea also.
Stops the thin wiper edge taking a set to one side in the heat.
I used a short length of sink waste pipe on my RV as the arm was some distance from the screen.

Presently use pipe insulation cut to length but these look neat and for the price worth the punt so have ordered a pair.

Seems expensive for what they are I would need two sets for three wipers, and they don't hold the blade away from the screen I'll stick to corks, free and plentiful supply.

I use corks advantage being every time I forget they are there they just drop off and are biodegradable.

I only cover mine when parked up over winter to stop the rubber freezing to the windscreen.

Another vote for sod all, no problems at all. I do keep the van clean though.

I made some identical out of an old silver screen. Plenty left to make sunshades for Windows as well.
