Has anyone been able to use PIAA's 95060 and 95043 wiper blades on a 2016 LS 460 ?
These blades are specified for the 2007-2015 LS models, but the 2015 and 2016 wiper blades are both 24" and 17" long.
Valeo makes the 900241B and 900171B wiper blades, but they're a rubber/silicone hybrid.
Bosch makes the 24A and 17B wiper blades, but they are rubber based.

I have been using the BOSH ICON or Evolution wiper blades for a few years. I have found them to be the best performing blade on all my vehicles including my LS460.
FunFact and rick3242,
Thanks for the quick responses.
PIAA technical support stated their compatibility guide incorrectly omits 2016+ LS model years.
The PIAA 95060 and 95043 will fit a 2016 LS 460.

I've had the PIAA silicone blades on the LS460, and found they got loud and chattered and I went back to the OEM blades. Honestly, best blades I've found are the OEM blades.

If you have OEM blades, buy refills. It’s cheaper and they will work just as well.

I have yet to have wiper blades that clearly outshined the others. And anything coated with hydrophobic solutions, such as Rain-X, are far worse.If you have OEM blades, buy refills. It’s cheaper and they will work just as well.

I’ve tried them many times, the OEM refills are way better in my experience.Originally Posted by jkittlesen

icons, PIAA, Valeo, all of them I’ve never found wipers that work as well or last as long as the OEM blades, so now I just buy refills.

LOL, okay.
Between PIAA and Bosch ICON, Bosch appears to be more popular.
On other vehicles, I've had success with the following process.
1) Use a strong cleaner (i.e., Chemical Guys) on the windows that won't damage the surrounding paint and plastic.
2) Use car wash shampoo to remove the strong cleaner.
3) Use a clay bar and lubricant on the glass to remove buildup and other contaminants.
4) Apply Aquapel to temporarily seal the imperfections in the glass.
5) Replace the wiper blades with a silicone or silicone hybrid model.
6) Apply 303 Aerospace Protectant to the wiper blades after each car wash.
You won't be able to keep the wipers off, but the water will sheet off like never before.

No hydrophobic coating on the windshields, only on the front side windows.
