^^^ how are those Latitudes? These are exactly what I am planning on getting next. Not just because they use a G coupe on the commercial either.

yep +1 on Bosch Icon, i've probably bought 7 Icon wipers (integra's have 2 front 1 rear).

I bought 2 RainX for my 240sx, and i wasnt impressed at all. also worth noting, was that it was on a brand new windshield. no excuse for them to suck there.
