I use the bosch icon wiper blades.. I think they are the best. I ran an icon on the driver's side and a micro edge excel on the pass side, and the icons are wiping better longer... so I'm going with both icons next time

Bosch Icons are the shizelnitz! I always had the wiper hop and noise when there wasn't enough rain to run the wipers, but enough that it was obstructing my view. These blades don't hop, skip (or jump), they swipe the windshield totally clean and I couldn't recommend them more if I were paid to do so (which I AM NOT). They look a little odd when you first put them on, because they hug the windshield more so than regular blades, but they are the best wiper blades I've had on any vehicle I've owned. They've been on the VX for about 18 months - still work like the day I installed them - not cheap (at $40), but worth every penny!

What is this "rain" you speak of? Los Angelinos do not understand.![]()

Thanks for all the input. I read about the Bosch after I had put the rainx on. I'll probably take that route next time.
Rain??? I've forgoten what that's like too. I need the wipers though because some tree in my yard sprays some kind of sticky sap all over so both the washer & wipers are used daily. If it ain't the tree spraying sap the only other thing I can think of is the squirrels are pissing on my P&J - Not Good!!!
i just put the anco frameless wipers (called anco contour) on my truck cause i got them at work 20% off.. they work really well to wisk water away.. but i noticed that on the way back down, they slash water 3-4 inches back into the field of vision in the center where they connect to the wiper arms
im using rain-x wipers now so far good

RainX went Tango Uniform on me. I'm trying out Bosch now. So far so good.
