I have been running the 16" RainX Lattitude on mine for a few years. Seems to work as well or better than any others I have tried.

[QUOTE=etl330;3786570]I had Bosch Icons and they suck...now I have Bosch Icon on the left and RainX Lattitude on the right - will see which sucks less. I really want to order a set of these scrub blades though

Any thoughts on which one worked better? I'm looking for a new pair and narrowed it down to those two.. Thanks

The PIAA Super Silicones are just what I was hoping for - buttery smooth and no streaking even with the ice build-up in frigid conditions.

Not to mention the fact they require no Rain-x, yet the silicone they leave behind is as if the windshield were Rain-x'ed.

Still using the originals that came with it when I bought it January 2008.

That's how bad our drought has been here in NorCal.

12" wipers would be appropriate for the TJ but not the JK. I'd always found mine at Walmart and Advance Auto. I've upsized to 16" blades on the JK to ensure the whole windshield is covered.

I've always had better luck with the factory wipers than any brand of aftermarket as far as longevity, none clean as well as i'ld like em to
