What Wiper Brand for Fit?

I have a 2016 Honda Fit and needs new wiper blades.

Usually, my brother does the purchase and installment for me but he passed last year so here I am all alone trying to figure out how to get my wiper replace. I did some researching but every brand seems to have good and bad reviews. Maybe I should just order OEM wipers? I would like something that last for a while and does not leave streak marks. Any recommendation on what works for you?

I just go to my local Honda parts department and buy the wiper refills. They perform the best in my opinion. And we have a ton of rain here in Seattle. Cheap and effective.

Oh I see. Unfortunately, I don't have the original wiper anymore. My brother swapped out the entire wiper. Guess I'll look to order the blade and the wiper. Thanks.

Silicone Wiper Blades.

Rain X Silicone Wiper Blades.

Last longer than regular rubber based wiper blades.

Available at retail big box auto stores.

The oem wipers are MITSUBA made in Japan. They seem to last the longest and they are reasonably priced on ebay.

I typically buy whatever beam style are on sale at the time I need them. Last set was some Anco's (I think) that lasted a long time. Especially considering FL summers are brutal. I need to order some new ones now, just went with a Bosch for the rear.

I do the Honda refills too. I'm hamfisted, so I let them put them on. They usually don't charge and rarely accept tips
