THE best wipers I have ever used (and I work in the auto parts business)
are the new Bosch ICON blades.
They have a one piece "backbone" that is precisely curved for YOUR
windshield....in fact it uses DIFFERENT blades for the driver and
passenger side....no "one size fits all".
In even the lightest drizzle they don't skip, shudder or streak and in
heavy weather they give an absolutely perfect no smear wipe. �Plus the
rubber is guaranteed to last longer than any other blade on the market.
They ain't cheap. �At least $20 each...or more.
But IMHO �they're the best there is...bar none.

Seems to be a lot of us using Bosch now. �Mine still work well after a year.
I'd never get a year from the Anco blades.

The OTHER problem causiung streaking is the arms spring getting weak
by stretching over time

I never buy Anco they are cheap junk, last set were tie wrapped in
place since they came off the arms

THANKS, ALL,

Has this been one worthwhile post!

Bosch it is, I guess.

THANKS!!!!
