    Rainx Latitudes, Bosch Icons or the Anco Contour

    They look good, work great and last a long time.

    I bought some of those and the way they're curved, they didn't even begin to lay down flat, only the outside tips touched the glass. if i had just left them alone they may have eventually layed down flat. But seeing as how expensive they were, $20-$25 each, i didn't want to risk it and just took them back. they also look funny

    well im pretty sure my windshield is fine, but look at that pic, you can see how curved the blade is, and our windshields are pretty flat...when i attached them, they stayed curved like that

    Stock blades are Bosch, GM PN 22143969. For some reason they're getting hard to find. Ordered a pair from gmpartsdirect with some other stuff and they put them on backorder - then sent me only one. Went to 2 parts stores for aftermarket today and weren't in stock. Going to try a couple more stores tomorrow until I can get the other original blade ordered from the dealership. Shouldn't be that hard here in the states, maybe the Netherlands can do better.

    I use the Rain-x teflon blades on my Camaro. So far best blade I ever tried. Also they dont freeze to the rest for those of us who have winters.LOL

    bosch icons. i've got them on the camaro, my monte carlo, and my moms malibu. they work great in rain and snow. yeah they are pricey but they are a great wiper.

    Have to say these are the best IMO. Bosch work good too but look bigger and more bulky. Rain X Latitudes and a coat of liquid rain x and your good to go.

    2001 Camaro SS Convert

    I bought the Rain-X and not real happy with them. the ends don't lay on the windows and they studder skip across the windsheild. I am wondering if I got the wrong size. Does the SS convertible use a different length?
    I know the the 67-69 converts had a shortened windsheild, but I am not sure 'bout the 2001

    Thanks!

    they use a 22" blade both sides.

    the bosch icons use a 422A and a 422B
