Bosch ICON wiper blades highly recommended....

I got a pair of the 21" Bosch ICON wiper blades for my 9000 a few months back.
I always had problems with wiper blades skipping, shuddering, etc. on my 1995 9000. I tried all kinds of cleaners, Bon Ami, Stoner Glass Cleaner, old newspaper, adjusting the wiper arms making sure the blades are at right angle to the glass etc... but the wipers always end up skipping over the glass.
While I was shopping at eEuroparts, I came across the ICON blades at $16 each. No, they're not cheap but I gave them a try just to see.
Lo and behold, no more wiper blade skipping, they give nice clean smooth wipes across the windshield. The only minor problem is that due to the curvature of the windshield, the wiper does not wipe the extreme corner on the passenger side.
It's been holding up well thus far.
I was about to buy another set, but apparently, there has been a run on the 21" ICON blades. However, if you have a 9-5 that can use 22" blades (eEuroparts carry them at $16 each), I would give them a try as well.
