I love the ICON blades from Bosch. They're worth every penny. I've had them on my Mustang GT for over a year through all seasons and they still work perfect. GREAT wipers. Best part is they never lift off the windshield, even going 80mph on the interstate.

I got some car wash soap from another company one time and the lid wasn't on...
