Model 3 Replacement Wiper Blades

[JBare]

I'm pretty sure the Bosch OE Specialty AeroTwin Set are the OEMs. Not only does the Bosch site say that 2018/2019 Model 3's are compatible, but I just ordered a set from Amazon, and they're identical to the stock ones (minus the Bosch branding) - no adapter or any other monkeying around needed - 30 second install. These are the same wipers that were OEM for my last car, Audi A4 (RIP you piece of crap).

Thanks, just hit 11 months and 19k so I think it's about time to do some maintenance. Guess I could check the washer fluid too. Only thing I've done so far is rotate tires which I'm sure for another.

Anyone use the Michelin Guardian Hybrid wiper blades from Costco? On sale for $6 ea. The fitment guide says to use 28 front and 18 rear.

Yup, these are the ones... $32.50 on Amazon currently Might pick up my set before winter, going on 15-months but my OEM blades are still pretty good.

My impression is that 'Bosch Aerotwin' refers to the rubber blade; the blade length and adapter combinations lead to a lot of part numbers. The Tesla Model 3 is suited for part #
3397014116

Mixing and matching requires 26" and 19" lengths; I am unsure how to specify the correct adapter other than to eyeball it:

NO, it's a COMPLETE OEM replacement blade set, nothing more to order, nothing to modify, plug and play install.

I realize that. I was describing what is needed to buy piecemeal

Techinically the OEM is 19” not 18” if you care.

Has anyone found Trico that fit without modification? I'd like to order for winter.

I went with Michelin Endurance XT silicone wiper blades, they work very well.

I installed the Bosch pure vision PUV 19 and PUV 26 from O'Reilly Auto Parts in August, 2019. Unfortunately after 3 months the blade on the driver / left side was squeaking and chattering. No amount of cleaning of blade and glass stopped it. The blade seemed to be less flexible than the OEM. I have now installed the OE Specialty AeroTwin Wiper Blades | Bosch Auto Parts pair 26" 19" A102S as mentioned in post #45. Squeak went away. Hopefully they will last longer.

I bought these Trico blades - they went on in a few minutes and seem to work fine, though I don't claim to be an expert.

Does it install without modification?

I ordered and installed these on our 3 last week. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013VDWXTI

No modifications were needed. It was very easy, taking about five minutes.

It's near impossible to find anything but the Bosch here in Europe, I want silicone but can't find any of the brands recommended here in the thread online in Europe.

These worked perfectly! No adapter necessary. Like NJturtlePower said, just plug and play. Simple....

Thank you! I took your tip, bought these on Amazon, and it took less than 5 minutes to install. And they perform great......

Got the Bosch AeroTwin set mentioned here. Very happy so far. Definitely appears to be exactly the same as the OEM blades except for the Bosch logo.
