What are other people using for replacement windshield wiper blades? I've been using trico neoform beam blades for years and they're awesome but before I go out and buy more neoforms, was wondering if there was anything brand new out there in the last year that are notable and I should take a look at? I gotta buy new wipers for all 4 vehicles before winter!!

 

OEM is the best

 

I recommend the Bosch Icon. Great design, almost looks like OEM. Performance is good. Both Lexus are sporting them.

 

yup, I go icons on all my cars.

 

anyone have toyota part number for wiper refills?
front two and rear...
thanks

 

+1. I find the Lexus wipers excellent, both in performance and durability. Now, if I lived in area with snowy and icy winters, I would probably exchange for a wiper where the ice/snow cannot accumulate between the wiper and the blade, i.e. no space in-between. But, here in FL, Lexus wipers are great and they last.

 

Agreed on the OEM. Am sure to clean them from time-to-time to get the bugs off, etc. I bought a number of sets at once from Sewell so I am still going through my supply.

As for the OP question, only the Bosch Icons stick out as being noteworthy.

 

Bosch Icon are far and away the best I have ever had. Effective and long lasting. Expensive, but almost completely different from everything else on the market. Highly recommended.

 

I guess the only downside of the Bosch are that there is not one for the rear, correct? Do not see one listed on their website product locator.

Been replacing the front OEM blades every 7500 miles while the one on the rear gets replaced at 15K due to its lack of use. Though, they are all routinely inspected and cleaned.

 

The rear, you get an exact replacement from your local BM stores. TRICO makes them. Like $11.

 

I'm looking for that too; not sure why people replace the whole wiper when a refill is all what's needed.

BTW, you can buy the OEM Lexus refills from Sewell Lexus for around $20.

 

I've looked all over and it's really hard to find a 14" wiper for the rear, other than from Lexus. I'll look for the refill at the BM store. By the way, what's a BM store?

 

just ordered oem refills from sewell...

 

I think it refers to a "Brick and Mortar" store. There are numerous 14" name brand rear wipers for sale on eBay.

 

Oh, "Brick and Mortar." I know what those are. I was afraid it might have something to do with my fiber intake.
