+1 The OEM was worthless from day one - left streaks on the window.

(breaks out singing) I can see clearly now that the rain is gone...

Or, there was no oil on my glass and the streaks were due to the worthless OEM wiper blades. Since I didn't clean the glass and the Bosch leave no streaks, I'm going with the lower quality OEM blades causing the streaks...

I've been driving for over 50 years and tried all kinds of aftermarket blades...most are crap. OEM blades are the only kind that I have found to work with any make car. Seems to be especially true with Japanese cars. I've owned Nissan's, Honda's, and a Toyota and tried all kinds of aftermarket blades on them and none work as good as the ones made for the car. Here in Chicago they are really put to the test.
