Part Review
 
I tryed to post this under the parts section but couldnt figure that part out.
mods feel free to move this.


A few months ago I replaced my windshield wipers with the reletively new Bosh Icon blades. I got em at AZ cause I couldnt find a matching set of the other brands. Trust me, I DID NOT want to spend more than 40 bucks for wipers.... well I had to get em..... turns out...... the damn things are awsome!
I tend to drive fast and all the other wipers I have had usually "lift" up off the windsheild at high speed. Not these suckers! They stay planted to the glass all the way past 100mph! The only down fall to em is the design makes using the windshield washer almost pointless. The spay nossels have a hard time spraying over the top of them. But thats no biggie to me cuz I hardly ever use my washer. I highly recomend them on your next wiper exchange!

I have the icons as well, they rock. BTW, the Mercedes blades are made by bosch, who also make the icons. and FYI, if you buy a ford 500 the only wipers that will work are a matched set from bosch for $40. how do i know all this...my few years selling auto parts at Murrays dicount auto.

I <3 Rain-X Blades
(Kinda odd how they make the surface treatment for use without wipers.. and they also make wipers)
