Wiper blades Bosch or OEM Mazda

just use normal bosch wipers

Just bought the Bosch 24XT and 19XT Bosch wiper blades and they’re a perfect fit on my 2024 CRV. No need to mod the plastic clip.

Bosch are good, I’m sure there’s others. Any time I’ve bought cheap wipers I’ve had noise.

I also run Bosch icon wiper blades. Been doing this for years and love how my windshields handle rain.

Bosch Icons were a revelation. Never bought anything else since

I only use Bosch blades... I don't get wiper juddering, smearing or noise. It works best for me.

my Bosch wipers worked perfectly.

I went with Bosch icons. They are good, very good in winter even, but noisy and fragile.

Bosch wipes still made an awful noise on my Taos.

I recently spent $70 on Bosch Icon wipers because I read they were supposed to be good. I read page after page on the internet of what size wiper to get and what brand was good. Bosch kept getting mentioned. All the sizes said to get 26 and 19 inches. Guess what? BOTH of these are WRONG. First off, I was not near my car when I purchased these or else I would have just measured the wiper myself. Both these sizes are bigger than stock and while they technically fit, there is less than an inch of clearance beteeen them. Secondly, I suspect because of the size, the wipers do not wipe correctly. They both leave giant patches of the windshield un-wiped due to the blade not making proper contact with the glass. Third, I had to use a damn Dremel to "modify" the clip just to get these stupid things on the car and even then I had to use so much force to get them on that I thought I was going to break them or wiper arm. I barely got them on. Now I can't return them so I'm stuck with $70 wiper blades that don't work properly.
