Just ordered a set to have as backup. They are similar to the Bosch Icons that I have on my XT. You can't beat the $20 for both deal.

UPDATE: Just bought some for the front. I'll get a cheap Pep Boys wiper for the rear.
Now, about that Futomo valve-thingy...

I only buy OEM subaru for the rear wiper. There are no aftermarket wipers that work correctly and cover the whole area the stock ones do. I bought two from Jackie at Annapolis Subaru for dirt cheap and came to my door in no time at all.

My Valeos arrived yesterday. And not a moment too soon since my current blades don't clear the windshield for crap!
I'll post up my impressions in the "Wiper Blades" thread in the "Other" forum section (once they're installed).

Haha, yeah mine arrived as well. I just need to clean my window off, clean my Bosch Icons off, and apply some RainX...then I should be good for a while.

Hmm, how much do I like Julian? I will have to get that answer, divide it by 2, than weigh that against the amount of liking the wiper blades. I will have to get back to you w/ that answer.

Okay how do I actually buy these things. I don't see a price nor anywhere to add them to my cart. Am I going to have to call up and order these?

If the wiper blades didn't change from '05 to '06 (which I don't see why they would), you can just order some '05s.

We should have been smart about this and put all of our orders into a single order and save on the shipping.
