I was a bit surprised when Tesla didn't list wiper blade replacements on their web site. But if they had them, I probably would have bought them from them. Instead I tried a quick Google and found that early on, no 3rd party replacements were available, but over time, they are available now.
The key is looking for a model with the PTB connector. Then just match the size. But of course, there is more.
I considered the Rain-x model, as I'm into premium blades, and I also really am considering a "winter" blade where everything is covered with a slippery material so ice doesn't gather.
But then I found the XTechnor and soon realized that if they aren't the maker of the OEM blades, they sure do look like it! and with the Amazon guarantee I purchased a set.
They are an EXACT FIT. No adapters needed, so fussing, and some of the videos showing the button to be difficult to press to release the blade wasn't my case at all. Total time to replace: 2 minutes. Why schedule a Tesla service call for that?!
I will re-order these next year and for anyone looking for a replacement to their OEM blades, I would look no further than XTechnor.
