Your Favorite Wiper Blade.

I'm due for a new set. What are you using? Brands to get and avoid.

Piaa Silicone Wiper Blades.

Did my own search for the best wipers. Consensus is that Piaa Silicone Wiper Blades are top rated. I'm going with Piaa.

OEM Honda wiper inserts work the best.

The bosch icons are pretty good but the honda inserts work well too and a lot of times are cheaper.

Thanks For The Responses.

I'm going with a set of PIAA silicone wiper blades. Silicone wiper blades last alot longer than the typical auto big box rubber based wiper blades.

3rd Gen Piaa Silicone Wiper Blade Code Numbers.

Aero Vogue series.

Driver's side - 96170 (28 inches) (700 mm)
Passenger side - 96135 (14 inches) (350 mm)

Autozone can order these wipers. According to what I could find online. Autozone doesn't stock these wipers in store. At least the Autozone by me doesn't stock them. Don't know if these wipers will work on the Gen 1 and 2 Fits.

I've used PIAA silicone wipers on all my cars since 2006. They far and away out perform Bosch, RainX, Ikon, etc. They wipe the cleanest and don't make any noise. They also lay down a coat of silicone that aids the water repellency of your windshield as well. You won't be disappointed. Most people don't know about these because they're no longer readily available off the shelf as they once were. They're a little expensive as well when compared to the cost of standard rubber wipers. I used to always think Bosch was the jam before I discovered these.

According to the Autozone website they have in stock or can order PIAA wipers.
