my front wipers are incredibly noisy... think the blades just need to be changed

what sizes are the front wipers? and maybe the back too just for general knowledge

The front ones is 51mm for the driver side and the passenger 45mm.
But if you want you can put little bit longer 53mm and 48mm ;) :mrgreen:

You should try flex wipes, they're a bit more expensive. But a hole lot better.

actually those ebay ones reminded me of something, what is that plastic guard thing on the wipers? one of mine has one and i always wondered what the point of it was

Plastic guard, you mean the spoiler? That is to put some downforce on it to wipe better. I once had it removed from a 5th gen Civic. You could really tell the difference. Normally the right wiper is always a bit worse than the left with spoiler (LHD), I think it is due to this spoiler thing.
