I have a pair. I like them. Miles better than Tricos (garbage!)

These will just tide me over until I buy some PIAAs. hehe

I have heard mixed reviews about the PIAAs . Of course , everything should get mixed reviews . Seems they are pretty expensive . I do wonder if $ 19.99 for 2 wiper blades from Valeo is as good as it sounds So , you like them ok but , want the PIAAs instead .

I just took advantage of this deal myself a few weeks ago. So far they are great! My only complaint is that the large wiper still skips a bit at the bottom of the swipe, but far less than the OE. The valeos are very quiet and clean really well. I was looking at Icons too, but at 19.99 you can't beat the deal!

Seems like very little interest in these . Sad . I went ahead and bought them . Holy crap ! Ordered yesterday . Got them today . Nice look and the price is outstanding . Too bad noone has really tried these . Remember , the best way to make wiper last is to NOT use them to clear bugs and other crud off . Clean that stuff at home . Use wipers only when raining and they will last . And , is it me or are these almost the same as the Icons but , with a much smaller top ? The Icons are a bit bulky . The Valeo wipers are very subtle . Nice touch

Nah, I'll stick with Bosch Icon.
Very satisfied with the performance of these wipers.
