I had sillblade flexblades on my TJ and my dad has them on his JK. They are awesome wipers. Got them from a reseller so they weren't too expensive. Now that only silblade sells them, they are kind of expensive.

Just called on warranty replacements. Silblades changed their warranty to 90 days.

I need replacement blades and I was going to go with Silblade. Now that they changed their warranty I think I'll try those Bosch ones previously mentioned.

I use the cheep crap blades from pepboys. Just get the rainex glass cleaner and rainex wiper solvent. They work great together. My blades seem to last a lot longer, like 8 to 9 months and I live in Buffalo NY where winter is harsh. I do like the Bosch Icons tho. I've had them on other cars and they work great too. Again Rainex cleaner and solvent. I swear by it.

Little bit expensive but I have them and love them. Still working great after one full Summer and one full Minnesota Winter. Time will tell.
