bosch evolution wiper blades

tried searching but in only see feedback mostly for the micro edge or icons.

anyone ever try these? there's some rebate action going on with them on amazon. i was thinking of picking a set up since i want to replace the OEMs once they crap out.

Seem to be a new blade. But ... which do they "replace?" FWIW, the rebate is a mail-in, not instant. Free super-saver shipping, though. My search indicated that 4826 and 4816 are the Bosch part numbers for 2004-2008 TSX'.

Real question for my 2006 model, does the blade slide into the super-duper whammer jammer high-tech Acura blade holder (the Bosch Icon does, IIRC), or does the Evolution replace the whole blade assembly?

BTW, I find no mention of the Evolution on their site. Whassup with that....

strange. you're right, it's not even on the bosch website. are these discontinued or a current blade re-named?

i also wondered if they're going to be longer than the stock versions for the passenger side. i know some ppl complained that the length of the icons goes past the usual resting point of the stock blades.

i don't mind the mail-in rebate.

For $45 a pair, I hope they wipe my runny nose, too. (kidding)

So their 94040 and 94065 are the refills. But would they fit the 2006-2008 OEM wipers....

The first time you buy it you get the whole thing.. the blade and the refill.. that is why it is $45
