Winshield wipers
#41
Wrongo on the A and B differance there BBAll
The A models are for wipers like ours where both sides go the same direction
Some cars have wipers that converge- meaning that with the built in aero spoiler on the ICONS- there has to be a left wipe and right wipe model
These are the leader in hi-tech all others are imitation wanna-beezzzzzzzzzz
Measure your existing wipers and go to autoparts store- ask them to look up the Bosch
wiper size for your year and model car as they may vary from other members.
Clean windshield with rubbing alcohol on paper towel to remove wax , road grime etc, then wax with Carnuba or Rainx type product for ultimate in vision
They named them ICON for a reason

Thats a small gap because the curve of the window, its not a big deal and only if the wiper arm hits the window frame at the low point should you be concerned.
Studies show less than 2 percent of the populus drives by looking thru a small slit on the bottom of the passenger side glass.
Look ahead and you will never know

I agree...the Bosch are probably the best out there but I decided that I would try these first since it was buy one get one free and if these work better than the conventional blades, then I will probably go to Bosch next time.
As for the spot the blade doesn't wipe...I have that now and I'm not to concerned about it. Just curious, has everyone that experiences this had their windshield replaced? I know I have. I was wondering if there was a correlation(sp?).

Why would a replacement window have different curves and still be able to fit in the stock location?
Its just a design issue and I willingly live without the contact when wipers are off.

I don't see why it would't fit. As long as the window fills the same hole, it is very possible to have different curves. I was thinking just a little more drastic of a curve towards the edges. It's not a huge issue for me but this may be a solution for those who it really does bother. I never noticed the problem until I had my windshield replaced from rock chips. Wondering if anyone else out there has had their windshield replaced.
