    Thanks for the demo I'll go try them out. Jump to: passenger blade removal (7:19), passenger blade install (8:43), driver side install (10:55)

    I just want to say thank you for showing how to remove the stock blades. Every other video I watched either completely skipped that part altogether or my favorite was the video where the guy goes through the whole process in a dark ass garage making it impossible to see what he was even doing so thank you for this. 🙏

    Thank you so much! You had an up close and focused view of the passenger wiper install that it made me realize I had the wiper the wrong way 😅

    Did you get ceramic coating. That paint is fire.

    Just replaced the OEM blades on my 2018 rex with the icons. They are the bomb. They were easy to install!

    Ive used all the top notch ones and Bosch tested best for price on the project farm. OEM lasted me like 3 weeks before there would be a streak that wouldnt go away across the windshield. These last much longer in my experience. I need to look into coating my windshield for sure.

    By far the best blades I have ever used, they usually last me 3-4 years and they see all weather conditions ☀️ 🌧 ❄️ 🍂
    I recently bought Trico blades used them about 20 minutes in the rain, and drove straight back to the store and exchanged them for the bosch because they were so noisy and did not wipe properly and clicked like crazy. I put the Bosch on and completely forgot I had wipers 😂 NOW I WILL ONLY BUY BOSCH ! AND THEY ARE CHEAPER !!!

    These blades loud in my Kia Stinger!
    They sent me a replacement pair and I will not use Bosch Icons.
    Went with the Michelin Endurance. Much quieter and less water trails..
    This just my experience

    Hey I brought one earlier today, do you know why there's 18A and 18B what the difference? Which one is prefer for the passenger side? Thank you

    • @Autofreakgarage
      @Autofreakgarage  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      16A is what you need. B has more concave in the blade. So if your glass has a lot of concave, b would be your choice. But a wrx or STI only needs a for both sides.

    Hi. I have a 2023 honda hrv lx. I'm leased it on 01/05/2023 @4:45pm. During my 3375 miles I have used my windshield fluid and wiper blades. The stock fluid from honda is no good, and the wiper blades are poor, they leave streaks ,make nosie and are cheap quality. I cleaned both the windows and wiper blades with glass cleaner ,both were dirty. I'm using Costco micro cloths,I highly recommend them to all humans(I don't like the white tabs and the edges of the cloths). Wish me luck with my

    have you had any problems with these Bosch Icon wipers skipping? I saw another video stating that it started skipping. Thanks!

    • @Autofreakgarage
      @Autofreakgarage  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Stay away from these blades my opinion

    @theblueninjazx10r 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Nice 👍🏼
    I went with RainX. I forget the type but they are similar to the Bosch Icon. Got mine from Target for about the same price and got a $5 gift card too lol.

    • @nthomas87
      @nthomas87 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      How did they work for you? I bought RainX brand wipers once. ONCE. Never again. They left an awful film on the glass and jumped around and skipped with as much as a breeze. They were useless at high speeds or a decent wind. They were the single worst blades I’ve ever owned. I was amazed by how poorly they performed. I think I owned them on a VW, which was my last vehicle before making the dramatic upgrade to a 2020 WRX Premium. I ended up buying some Bosches tonight. I’ve had good success with them. I didn’t buy the model shown in this video, but I considered it. I swap them out once a year so I went with the next step down from these ones.

      @@nthomas87 so far they held up pretty well. Haven’t had any real issues with streaks or smudges. I do clean the blades after washing the car with a microfiber towel and good glass cleaner.

      Im literally commenting this as I just installed a new set of Bosch Icons, because the brand new Rain X wipers I have on my car almost killed me last night, because of the film they leave...

    2020 sti looked into the Bosch icons and says the 26a and 16a won’t fit is this just them being dumb and they do fit or is there something different between your sti that the 2020 🤔

    • @Autofreakgarage
      @Autofreakgarage  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s them assuming they don’t and not doing the r&d needed. Yes they fit and perform perfectly. No difference between mine and a 2020.

    These wipers did not live up to the hype when I tried them out. I drive a 2021 RAV4, and I haven't found anything better than the stock wiper blades.
