Ended up getting some Tricos and they've been awesome so far.
Put them on my LEAF tonight and used them in the rain and they were perfect! They fit neatly without touching when not in use and don't streak.
Denso Designer hybrid low-profile frame wipers. The Denso wipers are what came OEM on my 2009 Subaru Forester and they just work great and last. They also look great on cars that have the traditional hook attachment. You don't get that big center block with extraneous mounting holes. The wiper sits flush with the arm. I've used them on a Miata, a Mazda 2, an Odyssey, and a '97 Accord.
I recommend the Trico blade. My OEM blade skipped and made a lot of noise. Now that I have the Trico it works perfectly. Same for the windshield wipers.
Trico force 26 inch and 18 inch also fit perfect on mk7 golf r. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk
Just installed Trico Ice wipers on my car and they fit perfect. Watched the video on the Trico site for narrow arm push button, did the replacement B/C adaptor, threw away the piece they said to do and BAM, fit like a glove. No stealership here!
Went to Autozone and picked up some Trico blades. I had to use the second adapter, but it really wasn't that difficult. I'm not sure what the big deal is? It took me less than 5 minutes to change both...
Front blades - yes 26,18. I got Trico Flex. Both had the tab you had to remove to use the 19mm "push button" (type defined in instructions) as opposed to the larger 22mm. My wiper instructions suggest that a penny will fit in 22 mm openings where it will no in the 19 mm, which again is ours. These have been on for about 3 months and no issues. Then I used the https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FADIYZK/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Trico 11-H Exact Fit Rear Beam Wiper Blade in the rear. Fit without issue.
After trying a lot of different blades over the years, these days I order Denso Designer blades for all my cars from Rockauto (not affiliated, just a fan). They were OEM on my '09 Subaru Forester and they work great and last a long time.
I just picked up a pair of Trico Onyx blades, part #s 26-240 and 29-190. They cost me $47.59 (includes the 3.5% sales tax) No reviews yet, but they did a great job cleaning my windshield.
