I ditched the original wiper blade carriers. I still use the arms themselves, but replaced the part that actually holds the rubber blade in place. The assemblies are available at most auto outlets for about $10 new. They have slots in them... I don't know if this makes the difference though. I havent had them move off or up the screen, even at 200kph.
