The Bosch Icons look exactly like the OEMs on my '12. Might try them out if they're any cheaper but up till now it's always been OEM. Everything else seems to streak too quickly.

Thats funny I brought an OEM into the store to compare and the Bosch Icon did not look like the original.

Except don't buy the Rain-X Automotive Glass Cleaner that "cleans to a streak-free shine." The only thing streak-free about that stuff is that the streaks are free. No matter what you do you can't get a streak free windshield with that stuff.

I also just bought some Bosch icons 22a and 22b, had to get them after having some trico black onyx on for about 6 months before they fell apart. I had bought those because the rain x latitudes that I bought didn't have the little curve to the back of them that must help them push against the glass, so they would flap around above 50. Also was wondering does everybody use 22'' on both sides, the book at the store says that what is supposed to fit but the passenger side always seems to hang off the edge when they are off.

The OEM size is 23 inch.

I agree and don't use the Car Wash either that shit will turn your running boards and any trim white, already had mine replaced.
And I sent an email to Rain-X and they won't even talk to me.

On my 2010 the OEM wipers were 22"

If you look in the book at the auto parts store it says 22" but I just called Ford and they said 23" for my Raptor.

I hear ya, I just used a ruler to see how big I could go that's why I remember mine being 22" maybe a hair longer 22 1/4". If that's what they want to call 23".

I switched to the Bosch and have had very good luck with them.

Ya I just measured my OEM and its 22" strange Ford parts just looked up my truck and its calling for a 23" and strangely its cheaper than comparable wipers at the auto store. When is Ford ever cheaper in price?
