i've had bosch icons for almost a year. still going swell

EDIT:
do you guys clean your blades when you wash your car? i do
i wanna say it makes a difference, cause every time my icons start streaking i just wipe them down when i wash my car and they work fine after that

OEM Honda work great.

$3.65 each for the rubber insert picked up from your local dealer. Or you can get the complete wiper for $9 each.

ive never changed my wipers in the 3 years ive have my car, IMO if you consistently apply RainX to your windshield you shouldnt have any problem.

Depends on where you live... low humidity, high heat, pollution & direct sunshine kill the rubber.

Changed my windshield wiper to NWB Design Wiper http://www.nwb.co.jp...esign_wiper.htm , which is the same thing as the newer Honda OEM wiper blades.

Pretty sure he just said, he went with a larger size than stock.

I too am using the 16/20. I've tried the Bosch's, Pilots, Oem, A couple other brands, and just picked up some RainX but haven't put them on yet. Pretty much all I've learned is that, they all equally suck in durability. Unless you take precautionary care of them.

I pretty much just expect to have to replace my blades every year, due to streaking. I just accept it, like an oil change, and move on. If next winter rolls around and the blades aren't streaking then, score?
