Bosch Evolution wiper blades

Post by JNavas »

Upgraded my base model 2005 S60 2.5T to a loaded low miles 2008.
Many things needed immediate attention, including wiper blades.
Seriously considered going with Bosch Icon or Rain-X Latitude,
but ultimately decided to go with the much less expensive Bosch Evolution.
After all, Bosch makes Volvo OEM blades (or so I'm told).
And I couldn't be happier: easy fit, great cleaning, dead silent.
Highly recommended.

Bosch does make a lot of stuff for Volvo and there sell quality products. I like the Volvo wipers personally, the drivers side wiper blade has a little spoiler on it to help keep it on the windshield while going highway speeds in bad weather. But if ur gonna go after market...Bosch gets respect for the quality parts they make.

I thought the price is the same:
- Bosch Evolution $15/each
- Volvo dealer OEM $16/each.

I may be wrong though...
