I have always used factory rubber inserts usually replacing every 2-3 years. I was wondering if any of you have found something better. I've done a little web research and found that all of the better ones usually have some drawback. There are many hi tech and expensive options but none appear better than the good ole factory insert. Thanks.

 

I recommend you stick with OEM, the engineers at Lexus know what's best for your car. I buy mine at a Toyota dealer, better prices. Good Luck

 

Have had great luck with Rain-X weatherbeater blades. Less expensive than OEM and last just as long.

 

I have been real happy with old-school anco blades although I replace them 2x a year (winter blades this time of year). The new ones that don't articulate never seem to work well for me especially on the back window, they just don't flex enough.

 

i get the $2 blade replacements at wally world and a nice layer of rain-x every time i wash.

 

Greetings!

I know that they are expensive, but I really like the beam style. In the snow/ice country the suspension blades collect too much ice/snow in the blade to be effective; the beams seem to work best on the rear window also.

Merry Christmas all!

 

I too have been using the new Rain-X Latitude's on all my cars and they are pretty amazing, considering I live in Chicago (Snow, Rain, Sleet, etc.) they are holding up very well.

 

i use rain x latitudes works awesome on my rx300, flexes great very quiet pick these up!!

 

I'm using Bosch Icon blades, I like them a lot

 

+1 for Bosch Icon - works great in New England. no more frozen/crusted up frames to worry about when it snows. if you are running the standard frame wipers, you will be amazed how quiet these are. they dont click every time they go back and forth.... what a concept!

 

+1 on the rain-x latitudes. i love those things. not a single streak ever.

 

+2 for Bosch Icons.

 

You people better only use the rain x latitudes....or else!!

 

+3 they are a great upgrade. i even replaced the rear wiper.

 

Bosch +4, incredible upgrade. Trouble is I need to replace them after 1 year but I would never go back.
