Where can I find OEM windshield wipers?
 

My dealer replaced my OEM windshield wipers with some crappy ones at my 30K service and threw them away! I asked for some new OEMs but they said that they didn't have any in stock...blah blah blah.

Anyway, the OEMs look the best and in my opinion work the best when compared to Bosch, Michelin, Rain-X, etc.

So, does anyone know where I can find the low-profile OEM wiper blades?

OEM wipers suck IMO. For that price you might as well get some better ones. What makes you say the OEM work the best? Mine started streaking less than 6 months after having the car. I replaced them with some Bosch Icons and they still work like new after almost 3 years. I like the look on them too. It is nice and low profile.

+1 for the Bosch Icons, they look almost exactly like the stock, just a little lower profile like wake said. i had them on my honda for 2 years, one set not problem. i havent swapped my G's yet only because a new set got thrown in at my last service

Preesh, Izzhang.

And I'm not sure why I've found the OEM ones to be best. Perhaps it's because I live in mild temperatures, my car is garaged, and I keep my windshield clean. Plus, the refill blade on the OEM wiper is ridiculously cheap, like $1.50 each

Those Bosch Icons don't fit our windshield design...

I bought a set (and I made sure it was the correct model numerous times) and the passenger blade was sticking up off of the windshield at the corner. I waited 2 weeks thinking it would take form but it didn't. I even exchanged them for another set and the same issue. I just had the dealer re-order the OEM ones for me.:icon43:

huh, mine have never had that problem. You sure you got the right size/length?

I went with the Anco and then did Rain X on the windshield. Its perfect.

According to Bosch website and the auto parts store...yes. :confused2:

Really? how did you maintain it?
My bosch icon on my old accord stopped working well after 4-5 months.

They found a part number for my 08 Coupe

426A ICON Driver's Side;Coupe V6-3696cc 3.7L FI EngDesg VQ37VHR GAS
417B ICON Passenger's Side;Coupe V6-3696cc 3.7L FI EngDesg VQ37VHR GAS

All I do is wash the car regularly. I try to keep the windshield as clean as I can though. I also wipe down the blades every so often to clean and buildup off of them.

Did they redesign the OEM wipers? The ones on my 08 aren't refillable.

I switched to Rain-X Latitude 8 in 1 and those have been awesome for the 5 months i've been using them so far.

Sure, they can be refilled:
