Wiper blades Bosch or Trico
I love Bosch wipers, personally. After reviewing the instructions for OEM replacement it seemed like a giant PITA, so I will probably go with Bosch on this vehicle, too.
It's gotta be Bosch Icon. I've used a lot of different wiper brands over the years, but these are by far the best.
Yes, they're pricey, but you'll be replacing them less often.
I use Bosch Icon's on all my vehicles. Have for years and really like them
Most OEM wipers suck in winter conditions, especially icy ones. Those of us that actually live in the mountains replace wiper instantly, I prefer Bosch Icon blades.
Bosch has wiper blades specifically for the rear window. Bought off Amazon for $13. Preforms better than anything else I’ve tried so far.
Bosch Icons, more expensive but you get what you pay for.
Only wipers that work on my car is the Bosch OE. 2018 Tiguan.
I’ve had Bosch Icon 28aoe, 18oe wipers for the front for about a year, I don’t find them to be any better than the OWM VW ones though.
I got the Bosch ones and I hate them. They’re worse than the OEMs. They skip and don’t get the top part of the drivers side. I’ve had them a year now and they aren’t better.
I just got new Bosch blades in the fall and I’m in need of a replacement set already. They suck.
