Default I use Bosch wiper all my life, they are the best! i -More

Bosch make wiper for all kind of size for all kind of cars, And Mercedes, BMW, and Audi's wiper
are all made by Bosch, their wiper are better and stronger than those you can buy from auto store. in fact you can buy and replace the rubber blade from Zimbrick.
Those rubber are the best in the market.

In my experience, Bosch and high-end Anco are highest quality, and Lexor are also good. During cold months, I like winter blades (rubber boot around wiper) -- it's nice not having to clean icy crap from between metal parts when it's five below.

I also strongly second Luke's vote for RainX; it makes a huge difference, and if you buff it a lot during application it lasts pretty long and won't fog up.

Default Rain-X smudges (oily) and doesn't last very long.... but aquapel rocks!!! you should get it....

I've put it on all my cars. It repels everything and lasts for 6 months, but I do it every year since it seems to work that long. have the rear window done too... thx fellas for all the 411, I knew bosch was good but thought there might be something "new" out there.....<ul><li><a href="http://www.ppg.com/gls_aquapel/">http://www.ppg.com/gls_aquapel/</a</li></ul>
