Default Windshield Wipers

Alright well--I live in Seattle and the rain is starting to get a little more intense.

With your collective experiences, what are the better wipers for the TT?

Thanks!

Not cheap, but not really costly, but the Trico Neoform are what i run and i dont think i can ever go with anything else now.

On a slightly different question, my right wiper seems to be slightly out of alignment (I guess that's the best word) in that it doesn't fully overlap the left wiper at the top of the wipe. It's kinda hard to describe, but at its peak the tip of the right wiper doesn't cross the path of the left wiper, leaving a patch of water to drip down from the top. I think it just needs to be adjusted a few degrees. Is this easy to do? Anybody else have this problem?

ps holler at Seattle!

what's the right size? (passenger/Driver side)

also cincy, does the passenger blade hug the windshield entirely?
I tried them and the passenger one detaches from the windshield about 2 inches from the tip

They are forced to curve like in the pic. So they contour the wind perfectly for me

I dont remember the size, i used the stupid search comp next to the blades

Itoo live in Seattle and just bought new wiper blades last weekend. I went with the Bosch. The driver and passenger are both the same size. Mine ended up costing me $130...............don't ask. [>:]
