Just get some Bosch Icons, and replace the entire thing! They're not cheap, but they work very well, and the look clean.

Rain-X blades work well too - at least they did on my last rig. Haven't changed the blades on my Tahoe yet.

Actually paid for the Icons $45..............didn't seem to fit. You mean replace the entire arm?

Autozone didnt carry the blades for the Tahoe. I had to go to the dealer because "they are special blades" and you can't just buy the blade. They are like $25+

Valeos

Just go to tirerack.com and get the valeo 22" wipers. Top locking gen II. These are an exact match the factory blades, and they last long.

You don't have to replace the arm with ICONS. Just the OEM blade holder. It should fit. Unless you model's arm is not universal. Seems everyone's saying it's not. Thanks a lot GM. Why go to all the effort to make something that you'll frequently replace not be universal?

Look at the last 4 pics. It's the windshield wiper, and the rear wiper.

Valeo is the OEM supplier. That's probably why they match.

I found if you clean them every time you wash your truck, they last a lot longer. I'm going on 20 months on the originals and still not streaking.

Yes, Advance Auto has a Trico that fits. They didn't have one for the rear window though.
They'll even put 'em on for ya.

Not that I let them put 'em on, but Advance does carry them, thanks.
