Bosch ICON Front Replacement Blades Any Good?
#12
1st time I changed blades I bought what I thought were good quality brand name ones, but they wouldn't turn over as they went back and forth. So, ordered OEM's from Mr. GM, couldn't be happier, they work great, and look right too. They don't streak unless I let the glass get real dirty and oily. I also regularly wipe the blades off with rubbing alcohol. I'll only use oem.

I just bought the Bosch Icon blades on Saturday. They work better than ANY other blade I have tried on the HHR. Even the OEM blades I bought last time were either leaving streaks or squeaking. But the Icons say they are made especially to the curve of your windshield and have a 'A' for the Driver's side and a 'B' for the Passenger's side. And so far they have delivered. I even came here tonight just to sing their praises, but I searched first and found this thread. More expensive but worth it to me.

A screed:
All brands wear out! You would think manufacturers would make a piece of rubber that is used to apply friction to a surface repeatedly, and is exposed to all of the weather elements last forever. They just don't care about the consumer, they are all out to kill every customer so they won't have to deal with complaints anymore.
There ain't a dimes worth of difference, buy what you want and complain/praise the brand your pappy always bought.
