The bosch blades are nice looking, we have them on our Mercedes. When my blades went on the Crossfire last summer my son got me a pair of blades at the place where he was working. They have teflon strips that come in contact with the glass and the are streak and squeak free. I have no idea what the brand was, came in a yellow package. They aren't as cool looking as the bosch but for 10 bucks for both of them it more than made up for the "cool" factor,
Pat

Clean your windshield real well and apply Rain-x. The rain flows up and off the windshield. Bugs are easier to clean off as they don't stick as well. If you catch a big Junebug at high speed, say > 80, they just EXPLODE and then the juice runs up the windshield in a nice, disgusting streak. Lightning bugs leave a nice glowy streak. But they come right off with a squirt of regular washer fluid and the wipers.

For people living in Germany (rest of Europe as well??),
the Bosch blades that you call ICON are here marketed with the name AEROTWIN,
the part number that fits the Crossfire is A551S.
I recently changed the original wipers for these ones and they work really like beauty, I'm not afraid of driving in the rain anymore (and I tell you, that's something in Germany ;-)

I hope this helps some of you.

Regards,
Daniel
