The Valeo's look great fitted, much much cleaner look. They obscure drivers and passengers view much less, and they hug the curve of the windscreen.

Now I just need some rain to test them, which probably won't take long at all...

Yes, the Bosch Icon blades really work, look better and do not lift at high speeds.

I like them so much I also put them on our tow vehicle and my wife's VW.

We stock them in the size to fit the 928 here:

Well, I installed the Valeo blades and have nothing but good to say. The look great and compare to the look and design of the Bosch Icon. Used them in the rain this weekend, work great!

I went with 20" blades (2x). 1" longer than stock. They cover the window better. At rest they seat well except about 1" on the passenger side.
