My husband easily installed the Peak Optix Flat Blades on our Dodge with literally a snap. The instructions inside showed each type and you picked the right piece according to what your wiper looks like. So easy and so simple. He snapped it out and snapped it in!

Ten Summer Travel Car Care and Gas Saving Tips:
Before you get on the road
1. Get a Check-Up:
Having your vehicle regularly serviced by a trusted technician is
essential year-round. However, bringing your car in for a check-up
before you take off for vacation could help identify any problems before
they surface on a long trip.
2. Check Your Tires:
Dealing with a flat tire while you’re on vacation can ruin a trip so
remember to have your tires checked. If they need to be replaced, it is
crucial to have this done.
3. Check Your Windshield Wipers:
Properly functioning windshield wipers are a fundamental part of
traveling long distances by car. Even if you’ve checked the forecast
(which is highly recommended), weather is ultimately unpredictable; you
never know what road conditions you might run in to. PEAK offers high
quality Flat Wiper Blades that are durable, and the installation is quick and simple.
4. Focus on Driving:
Be sure to have activities, books or games along to keep your kids
occupied so that you can focus all of your attention to the road.
5. Don’t Forget Maps:
Be prepared with maps – the old fashion kind. Electronics can
malfunction and cell phones may lose their signal. Having a folding map
along for the ride could prevent a disaster.
While you’re on the road
6. Check Gas Levels:
Always be aware of your gas level and where the next gas station is. If
your tank drops below half-full and you’re not sure how far the next
gas station is, save yourself the worry and fill up while you have the
chance.
7. Bring a Power Inverter:
Carry a power inverter to keep your electronics charged – most
importantly, your cell phone. It’s imperative to have a mobile device
fully charged in the event of an emergency on the road. PEAK offers a 150 Watt Power Cup Inverter that fits into your vehicle’s cup holder and provides two power outlets and two USB plug-ins.
8. An Emergency Kit: Have an emergency kit handy. This kit should include flares and an emergency flashlight
in the event that you have car trouble at night. It’s also important to
have water, blankets, snacks, fresh batteries, a cell phone charger, a
first aid kit and jumper cables. If you do have to jump start your car, PEAK’s portable power systems will do the work for you without the need of another vehicle.
Gas saving tips
9. Make Sure Tires are Properly Inflated:
Make sure tires are inflated to your car’s specifications, as
underinflated tires will cause your car to waste gas. Specifications can
be found on a sticker on the driver’s door or in a car manual.
10. Use Cruise Control: Anytime you can avoid breaking and accelerating, will save you gas.
