Update:
They work good, a heck of a lot better than the factory ones with the open frame where the ice builds...

I'd give them7 on my car...

I also outfitted a Camry and the windshield is a little flatter and wider and they clean perfect.

 

Ohman - talk about deja vu. The exact same thing happenned to me - but in my case, the passenger side wiper came off. I drove almost blind the 10 miles after that. What crappy weather this time around. This particular thread helps a lot ... need to buy before the next one comes around. Oops, it's already here!

 

I feel for ya man, my buddy with his Volvo lost his "Driverside wiper" in that storm and his used his snow brush to wipe the glass from inside the car....talk about roadhazzard!

Ifyou go to NAPA here's there part number for the Teflon Winterwipers:
WIP 60-2159

 

Bosch Icons
Or Trico Neoforms, but I suggest Bosch.

Something with a piece of spring steel instead of hinges so there's nothing to fill up or freeze.
The "winter" blades are super stiff and don't conform to the windshield well, but they don't get filled as easily.
Another benefit to the more expensive blades is more rubber content versus more vinyl content, which means they'll last longer in the extremeconditions.

third one down, bosch makes them

 

i rock the bosch icons too. they are great in all weather. i havent had a problem with them at all and ill probably keep using them.

 

yuppers; Bosch Icons rule! I can't put Trico or Anco on German car when there's a German company, Bosch, making a superior product for a superior car. Same goes for my tires: I prefer to keep the Continentals on my ride (the SportContact 3's are amazing tires). When I can keep it German, I prefer to do so. Good for me.

 

At some point this winterI will try the Icons or Tirco's line of BeamBladesas thay do look cool and it looks like theanti-lift wing is incorperated into the design.

I'm a little weary about the flashy slim design as it may not with stand the nasyNewEnglandstormsas opposedto what youdo not getin theLA area.

The NAPA/Tricos are working great but they do not have an anti-lift feature.

New Update:[/align][/align]I had to bring back one of my winter wipers to NAPA as a plastic clip broke.[/align][/align]NAPAand Autozone carry Icons... the zone is $19.89[/align][/align]I inquired about Icons and the Trico NeoForms...pretty much the same design...Beam Blade.[/align][/align]The owner told me he and the localBMW / Benz dealer sent the Icons back as the rubber wiper might as well have been made from tissue paper.[/align][/align]He say's in short time they leave lines behind.....it made me think about the Bosch Micro Edge I had on my other car and they were like that.[/align][/align]He went on to say all his plow trucks run the NeoForms now and they work awsome.[/align][/align]He exchanged my winter blades for the NeoForms.....I drove from the store back home in a snow storm..about 15 miles....[/align][/align]So far they work great! not a sound and they wipe 100%[/align]

 

Been running Icons for 6 months now. Perfect blade.
Just put Neoforms on the Tacoma and they've been great, but don't look nearly as sexy.
