Default If you have the original OEM wipers, you could buy just the wiper inserts from your dealer...
and replace. Otherwise, I would recommend Bosch "Micro Edge +" wipers or maybe the Bosch ICONs.

Default 3rd. I just replaced mine. I had a set two years ago tried different ones this past winter and I
still found the Icon's to be the best. No squeaking, lasted longer, cleaner sweep. Be cautious that the window is ice free; don't run the blades across a frozen windshield. Once you fray the edge they will never be the same.
