Rear Window Washer Blade

[Blue PonyE]

Thanks for the recommendation. I searched for that one on Amazon and was offered a compatible knock-off that's even cheaper than the Trico, from "Wowiper." Anyone have experience with this brand? Amazon reviews are solid though I take these with a grain of salt:

Would that be from the maker of Sham Wow?

Thanks everybody for your quick responses.
When you look for a longer blade in the auto parts store they all state a longer blade would break the motor. None of you has reported having this problem. Could it be that Ford used a standard motor that accommodates all sizes of blades?

Many, many people have changed the blade, there is no motor issue.

Got the Wowiper today from A. They had it on sale for 6.99. It looks to be about 3 inches longer than OEM. It feels thinner than the OEM by a hair. Instructions on the box were a joke. Could not have done it without video from Jerrytball. Thank you. Seems to be working fine on a quick test with washer. What a difference in view! Why would they put on such a short wiper blade? The only issue with the Wowiper is durability.

The Bosch A401H blade works even better than the Trico 15-G blade. Having tried both, I speak from experience.

Agreed, I bought one in the UK and fitted it. What a difference it makes to visibility out of the rear window! Fits perfectly too. Second best upgrade to my MME after the TWRAPS dual MagSafe charging pad.

I also have the Bosch A401H. The increase in swept area and visibility have to be seen to be believed. These ought to be OEM.

Did you do a 16" or 15" in the Bosch? I'm a fan of their blades, too.

I have used the Bosch A401H for the past two years. No problems.
Good hug on the window. No streaks at two years.

The A401H is 16”. The Trico 15-G is 15”. ??

The 16” A401H. So far, so good.

A401H working well here also for over a month. Enjoy the larger coverage area.

I just ordered mine. Looking forward to bigger coverage area.

Finally installed my rear wiper blade. I’m so much happier with this than the stock one. My dashcam’s rear camera can actually see out the back.

Since it was so nasty out today, I thought I would take a picture of the rear window from inside the car with the wiper blade installed how big a path it does clear.
