Bosch has everything, just gotta find somebody who carries them. Probably gonna be stuck with the dealer.

And like DM said... Get the good stuff. I have the Bosch Icon's, and while they haven't been great today with the snow storm, they are leaps and bounds better than any other wipers. And bar none they are the best in the rain.

DO NOT GET RAIN-X BLADES!!! They just smear water across the windshield.

I know you started this string during last winter but another winter is upon us and its wiper season again... What didn't/don't you like about them? I personally love the beam-style blades and have been using trico neoform beam blades for two years now here in Wisconsin. They rarely ice-up and if they do, one snap clears them off.
