Wiper blades Bosch or Trico
I've been very happy with the Trico Onyx blades.
Bosch Pure Vision is what I use, they always last me a year or more. I'm on the Gulf Coast in Texas and other brands of blade usually only last me a few months.
The driver's side one on mine bounces at the bottom sometimes. What I did was replace it with a Bosch 22" one vs. the OEM 24" size. That solved it for me. Additionally, it annoys me that the passenger-side wiper travels smack into my field of vision, creating an annoying line on the window in the rain that makes visibility tough sometimes. Really poorly though-out wiper design.
Go to Canadian Mutha Fucka and get the Bosch ones from behind the till in the automotive section. They come in a package with both blades. They are OEM material. 40 Bux for both.
Bosch Icons DO work, but you need to by the "clearmax 365" version to get the proper adapter.
Bosch ICON wiper blades. They work great. I usually replace mine once a year after winter.
Bosch Icon’s here - they work great
The stock ones were awful, I replaced them within a month with a pair of Bosch blades, and they've been great for almost a year.
The best wiper blades I've *ever* had were Bosch. The last pair I bought lasted over two years, had great contact, and never skipped no matter how dry the windshield was when I flicked them.
They gave me Trico Force blades, which the website says will fit my 2008 B7 A4. I just tried to install them and it's clearly not a fit. I've scoured the web with no luck finding anyone that has been able to fit them. As I look at the mounting, it looks like I can pry out the old plastic Bosch swivel mount and put these in, but don't want to break anything.
