Review on 2011-2013 Kia Sportage Rear Wiper Blade 988503w000 - Genuine OEM by Jarod Berthelson

Snaps easily as it should, but the blade and rubber quality leaves a lot to be desired. They only last about 6 months in 4 season weather that ranges from 0 to 100 F. As long as the price stays reasonable I will continue to order an OEM part. I tried replacing the rubber blade with a better one, but the manufacturers were way ahead of us. They change the width and orientation of where the blade enters the fingers of the hand so much that only a rough one will fit. Of course, no aftermarket brand has a higher quality 12" blade to match KIA's design. Chevrolet yes. Kia, no.
