Windshield Wiper Blades

Where can I buy them locally?

Is it easy DIY?

Dude, its a 15 second per side job. If you're slow...☺

I just bought some OEM ones at the dealer, I think they lowered the price.

Definitely a DIY, unless u r going for a mono wiper conversion, which we used to do back in the E30 days.

You actually cannot replace the wiper blades on the e9X M3, its a design flaw. Basically you need to sell your car and get another one. Be sure to check the blades before purchase though.

I just switched to the new inconel blade, the dealer told me it's a lifetime replacement.

Drive in rain you should not.

Pretty much any auto parts store, or even Amazon. There's nothing unique about the blades on the car. Should set you back about $20/blade, sometimes less when they run rebates.

I bought these. Super easy. But I think the sedan and coupe use different sizes or something particular to year. I can't remember.

Correct, sedan and coupe sizes are slightly different. The auto parts stores have the little books you can look it up in.

Don't forget to register the replacement wiper blades with the DME.
