Default Simple Wiper Blade Question
Are you guys replacing yours with new, factory wiper blades (part # BC3Z-17528-C) or did anyone find something that works/fits better?

Why the Icons Techrep?

I been using the factory ones for a while now too, but on the new truck they are not great.

I have used all the aftermarket blades and they work the best of them all...but, they are pricey ...

Same here. I have always gotten better life and performance out of the OE stuff. Im not sure who made the wipers for my '10 outback but those things lasted forever.

Forgive the highjack here....

Do any of you hear a "thunk" when the wiper changes direction (wet or dry)?
