Default Bosch Evolution Wipers

Hello,
I recently replaced my windshield wipers with the Bosch Evolution blades. Yesterday we had a rain storm and these wipers were great. Plus they were on sale at PartSource.

Give us an update after long term use.

Personally, the OEM are among the best blade refills.

And they look good, too. Looks like OEM by design.

The 3rd gen uses inserts like the 2nd gen. The size is 26/22/14. It's harder to change them since the wipers don't flip up front and the rear wiper is tucked under the tail. I usually get the inserts from Sewell but I might try Bosch sometime. Thanks for the review.

The rear is a direct replacement from the local BM auto stores. 14". Costs $15 maybe tops.

The brand is TRICO. It looks identical to what we have. So we know who is making them.
