If you find PIAAs that fit, please let us know. So far, it doesn't appear like they make one for our 7th Gen.

On a separate note, You will not be pleased with the latitudes. They start out good but I only get half as much useful life on my max as I do the Bosch. The Neoforms seem to last about as long as the Bosch on my Max. (you really can't compare performance against other vehicles as there are too many variables to take in e.g. Windshield geometry, windflow, arms, length, etc)

 

FYI - they're running the rebates on the NeoForms again except this time you can get up to 2 sets and up to $30 back...could only do one rebate per household last time...great deal for us multi-vehicle owners. Here's the info.

 

Just like all the other experiences with Nissan products, the wiper blade replacements suck. The original blades that have the hard shell plastic coating were good so I opted to replace just the squeegees. It was simple, order them and replace them. Well they streaked worse than the ones I replaced. Went back to the dealer and they convinced me to replace the whole blade with the new Super Duper replacement Nissan beam blade. I have used both Rain-X Latitudes and Bosch Icons on my other vehicles and both are excellent. So I figured I would try the Nissan Beam blade. Put them on and they streaked horribly too. Thinking a bad batch of rubber maybe, also noticed these were made by Valero that many others have touted. Dealer said comeback let us look at them and see whats wrong.

Knowing that Nissans parts are low quality junk I went right to Advanced Auto and purchased the Bosch Icons in 428A and 417A like Light on Hill suggested. Ready for this they worked absolutely perfectly. Not a single streak and much better than the originals that came on the car brand new.

So I drove to the dealer and walked in with the Squeegee replacements and the blade replacements and the parts manager said to the service counter can someone take a look at what the problem with this customer is having with the wiper blades. I said no need to look at them because the Bosch Icons that I purchased and put on the car 10 minutes ago are working absolutely perfectly streak free. So please just give me a credit or a refund. That's exactly what they did.

I decided on the Bosch Icons over the Rain X Latitude blades because the housing is designed better and looked better for the Maxima.

Don't waste your time with anything else buy the Bosch Icons!

 

I just put the Icons on a couple of weeks ago - love 'em!

 

That's exactly how I feel about the Trico NeoForms - better than original and less money than the icons. (I disagree with you on the rainx lats though - junk)

 

On the 2012 SV, the OEM blades streaked terribly after only 13 months and 22K miles of interstate driving.
Replaced them with Latitudes 28" and 17". Like night and day but a little pricey even with coupon.
This is the first car in 50+ years of buying cars where I had wiper quality problem.

 

The blades on my 2010 streaked badly from the time I got the car.
Due to the ever present PacNW rains I had no option but to change them out (with non Nissan blades). Quality wise I rate them on par with the cheap a$$ Nissan battery that went south on me at 14K.

 

I got Rain-X Latitude's and they're awesome so far

 

lol why waste so much time at the dealer on wiper blades

 

My point exactly!

 

The wipers on my 2012 premium worked great but I picked up a small divot on the drivers side blade which, of course, is right in the sight line. I took a chance and grabbed a pair of refills at Nissan today while I was picking up some touch up paint. Relatively inexpensive. I'm waiting until I can give my car a spring bath after the New England winter to swap out the blades. If they suck as others have noted, back they'll go.

 

If they don't work for you, try the neoforms. I think you'll be happy.

 

Thanks. I'll check those out.
