TRICO 20240 and 20220 the Teflon Dual Shield through rockauto. - please tell me these would fit.

also purchased standard wipers TRICO 229 TRICO 249, but these, I was going to just use the blades on the oem arms just like what another poster did.

thanks

I was wondering if the wipers you purchased fit and how they performed. What's the latest and best recommendation for the front set and the rear wiper (North East climate)?

the Trico's were the first aftermarket blades i've switched to. so my knowledge of wipers comparison is quit limited. As for the Trico i have installed, the installation a breeze. Just as others have mentioned, you must remove the wiper arm piece on drivers side. Just wiggle it with a plier and it'll come loose.
i would have purchased a 21" rather than the 22. The arm sits just right above the window rubber trim. I live in sunny socal, so we haven't had any rain in a while. So again, limited experience. Sorry. just the normal wipe and light rain, it seems good so far. sorry for the inverted pic.

If these doesn't work out, I'm going to go with Bosch as what many have recommended.

Good luck

Another vote for Bosch Icon's, they are working great.
