Once you've got auto wiper system, you'd feel lost without it.  Jealousy perhaps  ::)

I agree with dbug ......... once you've used them, you miss them when they're not there - same as 'lane change' indicators  ;)

Apparently these rain sensing wipers can be "fooled"and not work as intended if a product such  as rain x or similar is used on the windscreen.

Have to remember to turn off the wipers before starting car in this weather, as the ice on windscreen sets them off. Another set of wipers needed. *sigh*.
