I have not used them before, but I would pay the extra for the Icons or even the Latitudes from Rain-x. I got he latitudes on sale for 16.99 at Target a few weeks ago. I have had both the Icons and the Latitudes, I like the lat's a bit better but they are both great. I also went with the larger blade on the driver side.

+1 on the RainX Latitudes... bought them over a year ago, and still performing strong.. (when i use them that is :rotfl:)

due to the length of the blades, there will be some excess "chatter" as you call it because the passanger one does not ug the windsheild the whole way.. however, my latitudes dont "chatter" like you described about the other blades..

I ended up getting the Icon's. One think I noticed was they go in easy and come out easy so I hope that's not going to be a problem. The clip don't seem to be as sturdy as I'm used too.

Think thats what I got this time around vs the Bosch Icons. IMO so far, they clean the window just as well as the Icons did. Time will tell, I usually end up going through a pair every year with all the snow/ice I get when skiing.

Run a 24 or 26" blade on the drivers side, cleans a TON more of the window. The guy at O'Reillys let me take a 22, 24, and 26 out to test fit them. Got a 26 on the drivers side and the normal 22 on the pass, theres no more triangle between the blades. They clear by about 1/2".

:wootwoot::wootwoot:Get the Force blades....they work well in all weather and were designed to hug the sheild at higher speeds....they look great as well. Extremely easy to install for all models...i put them on a new XF jag and they were so much better than what was on...try em...you will never use another wiper blade again.
let us know what you choose. Wipers are very important.:wootwoot::wootwoot:

The Bosch are good enough for Reed Timmer so they're good enough for me. :thumbsup:

Usually I shun products endorsed by celebrities, especially drama llamas like Reed, but in this case I succumbed.

I use regular Trico's and they work great , on the 2nd year with them and they still clear the windshield great with no chatter.
