I am currently testing these. The snap seems secure but was a bit tricky to install with the bend in the 9-5s wiper arms. These are definitely better than the Trico Innovisions which don’t have a spoiler and seemed not rigid enough to me. I did get some icing between the plastic housing and the wiper blade. It was easier to break off than ice in the OEM metal frame, but not as good as a true winter blade. The Trico Innovisions had lots of flex when it wiped. That said, one of mine Bosch Icons developed a permanent streaking in one spot about 3 days after installing it. They are also shorter than OEM at only 22”. I won’t repeat what I ranted about below regarding this.
