Factory BMW OEM replacement for E46 M3,
Update 12/23/2010: Eleven months later, the blades are chopping, skipping and chattering across the windshield (which itself is only 14 months old). I’m having a tough time finding refills for these blades. Anyone have any leads? If I find them, I’ll post the information here.
Update 1/2/2011: I successfully located refills for these wiper blades. They are available online from Pelican Parts and run $5 per insert (+ s/h). Search for part «61-61-0-154-440-M9». They are trim-to-fit. I was able to trim them to size using wire cutters. I bought an extra pair for our 2006 MINI Cooper S convertible and they worked out fine there as well.

Prob best wipers on the market, fit E46 325ci,
If you’re gawking at the price, you probably shouldn’t being driving a BMW then. 128,000 miles of perfectly streak and noise free wipers is worth the $10 I might save getting cheap-o made in China junk.
Btw they are exact replacement except a small Bosch symbol on the driver’s spoiler. They installed in about 2 min total, less if I had to do it again since now I know how they go on. Also Bosch is a high quality German engineering company.

Much better and more durable than Rain-X,
In case you’re not familiar with them, Bosch is the company that actually makes the OEM wiper blades for many high end cars (like BMW, for one). In fact, you’d probably be surprised by how much inside your car is made by Bosch. So, you’re not buying from a company that is just marketing cheap parts made in China and selling it with a lot of marketing. You’re getting OEM quality with these, if not better. So, when considered in that light, as well, these blades really aren’t that expensive.
They don’t streak or chatter, and even after having them on my car for over a year, they are only streaking a small amount. That’s saying something, as these have now made it through two Boston winters.
So, the blades really do last, but will you be happy with them while they do? I think so. They hold the shape of the windshield well, and never flap or vibrate, no matter how fast you’re going. The bracket is solid, and worked well on the J-hook in my car. Many other «universal» mounts didn’t work so well, notably the ones from the aforementioned Rain-X wipers. The single piece design is also great for those living in cold climates, as it is less vulnerable to ice and snow build-up.
Given that your eyes are the most important safety device on your car, you owe it to yourself to not skimp on wiper blades. But I’m pleased to report that despite the upfront cost, these are actually MORE cost effective than many other premium wiper blades, given that they are the only expensive wiper blades I’ve ever used that actually lasted longer than the cheap ones.
Tip: the A or the B after the model number (e.g. 22A) refers to the spring force of the blade (i.e. how hard it is to pull it straight). The B applies more force, and would be useful if you have a highly curved windshield. The fact that Bosch offers not just a variety of lengths down the inch, but also two different spring forces, is another indicator of the fact that these are not your average wiper blades. I found that having an A on the driver side and a B on the passenger side works best on my car. If in doubt, just try A all around, and then if you find that the blade is missing spots on the ends of the blade, return the A and get a B.
Last tip: Amazon’s database is helpful, but by no means complete. If you think this will fit your car, but Amazon says it won’t, ignore Amazon. They say neither blade I have on my car will work, and yet I’m extremely happy with them, as you can tell.
