Best Wiper Blades

Bosch Icons for this guy!

Have em on my '99 and my gf's '04 4runner. Work really great in snow, ice, rain, whatever.

 

Bosch Evolutions. I was looking for Icons but couldn't find them anywhere.
The evolutions work great as long as the windshield is good and wet. Otherwise they chatter like crazy.

 

Just got back from advanced auto zone and was told the bosch icons do not fit the 2013 tacoma.

Any idea where I can find them?

 

yes they do for craps sake you encountered idiots at the store

the A and B of the Icon indicate if they curve around really bent glass
or not.

Just get any ICON of the correct length

22 inch drivers side 21 inch passenger side

 

Rain x. But, I had the Bosch blades on my old truck for 3 years. Worked great. I'm sure the rain x wiper blades work good too.

 

I treat all of my windows, headlights and taillights with Rain-x four times a year and use Rain-X wiper fluid. I also replace my blades rwice a year (October & April). With the Rain-X treatment, doesn't really matter which blades I use.

In the winter, the ice/snow doesn't stick, and I can just brush off the surface snow.

 

Bought Rain X Lattitude a month ago. Only had rain once, but worked great. We'll have to see how they handle summer heat.

 

Last night in the snow reminded me why I use Icons. The OEM blades on my 2012 simply slid over the top of the wet snow on my warmed up windshield. I had the same issue on my 1999 Taco until I put the Icons on. Down to Advance Auto I go to get my Icons!!

 

Anco Contours about 6 months ago. Starting to streak and chatter now. Might try the Icons next.

 

I got my Icons from O'reillys. They had a sale on em at the time. Might wanna check there.

 

Wiper Blades are a SCAM.

I have tried the expensive ones the dealer one and the cheap ones.

All i use anymore are the cheap ones. The expensive ones are not worth a crap and only last a year also.

I just wait until the first snow storm of the year and get a new set. Been doing this for years now works great. And if you are in a cold area use the rain x orange fluid.

 

I want to put on everything. Work boots. Work gloves. Inside of snowblower. On whole crappy trailer. Underside of truck. Tent rain fly. Hell I can think of tons of things this will be good for.


That stuff looks sweet. And the fact its good with oil and water is cool.

I Rainexed my eyes so I wouldn't have to blink anymore. I just stick my head out the window while I'm driving and they clear right up.

 

Siliblades have worked great for me thus far. I'm on my first set, trying them out.

 

Rain X latitudes going on a year and doing great, i use rainx washer fluid additive. Bosch icon and all other blades I've tried lasted 3mo tops

 

I usually go for Anco. They work well and last for me.
Rain-X are good but overpriced.

MICHELLIN SUCK! They should stick to tires...

My 2 cents...

 

I use the bosch icons. They have lasted me the longest. i did have rain x. they started making noise and smearing/streaking. and both those things annoy the hell out of me. I think you get what you pay for with wipers. Bosch maybe a little more money but last longer and are better.


I use mine to clean the windshield all the time. i’m kinda OCD about it, if one bug hits it where the wipers can reach it i clean it off right a way. I also use rain x washer fluid, A LOT of it. i buy 2 or 3 at a time, because i use so much and i try and keep extra in the truck.

 

x2. i want to put that on just about everything.

 

Oh man the worst thing ever is bringing my rig to the dealer for
service, and forgetting to top off my tank with the orange mix.

in goes the blue crap, and then I mope for a few weeks until I can
use that up and get back to old orange

 

I bought some Bosch Icon's from rockauto.com and love them. I believe at this time they might be cheaper on Amazon.com. Either way when I get them again I'll buy them from the cheapest source I can find.

I also use the orange Rain-X washer fluid too, that stuff is the shiznit, cheapest at Wal-mart I've found.
