I just installed new brake pads and rotors all around, oil and filter change, new bosch icon wiper blades, and new oem rubber floor mats. The car runs and drives great and everything works as it should including the sunroof, heated and power leather seats, satellite radio, windows and mirrors, etc.
Bosch Icons. Hands down the best
The blades at the dealer are the same price as the bosch (about $18 each) and actually fit, I think they are a great blade current set has been on the car for more than a year and still wipes like new.
I have had both, I think the Rain-X are a bit better, though the Bosch aren't bad. the Bosch seemed to have a bit too much stiffness, didn't clear the center of the path as well.
I've used Bosch Icons for 2 years and they never fell apart.
Bosch, I have been told are awesome, so I might use those next myself.
I get nearly 2 years out of Bosch blades. After the second winter they're ready to be replaced. I replace them in April so I get 24 months out of them instead of the 16 I would get if I replace them in December.
I've had good luck with [Bosch Evolution](http://www.boschautoparts.com/wiperblades/pages/evolution.aspx). I keep these on my daily driver, which I park outdoors under a tree and they still perform beautifully, notwithstanding some intermittent tree debris that I need to clear away. I live in the Midwest and they perform longer and better than any other blade I've ever used...I've also used RainX Repel blades and they don't seem to last as long. I've had my current pair on for 5 months and they're still going strong.
I have the Bosch Icon wipers. Same set I put on in Feb of this year and still going strong.
I went to the dealer they replaced them since i picked up the car a few weeks ago and one of the wipers smears again. Seems like these wipers are crap.
