I installed the Bosch icons 22oe they don't seem to sit 100% correctly on the Wilber bar the one nipple snaps in the whole but the 2 wing type things don't snap out from under and the passenger seems to fit on better but I took them both off double checked and they are on correct but anyone else have this ?I put the zip tie on just incase

And that's why I like the OEM's.

the driver side is worse then passenger but they both don't seem to be sitting correctly. I was wondering if thats just how they sit I can take more pics ?

Mine snapped right in. As soon as I inboxed them, I removed the plastic clip on the blade and it just slid into place on my wiper arm no problems. No wiggle room.

see hows theres a gap the pin that snaps in the hole snaps into place but doesn't seem full in but I can't get it to fit better these are the driver side passenger is the same. that clip I had to take off of the Bosch icon wiper as soon as I took it out of the box did you guys do the same ? thanks for all your help its really appreciated

Read the back of the packaging. There's like 2 different types of wiper types follow the instructions for the one you have.

I’ll check mine tomorrow for a gap, but I don’t think it’s there. They slide in far enough and if that clip pops in place, I wouldn’t worry about it falling off. I had to use a screwdriver to push the tab in far enough to take it off. It was pretty secure.

yes to take of the factory wipers I need a screwdriver to push the tab out also these just don't seem as secure

I was away from my truck these last days but I managed to grab some pictures. They both feel secure.
Both pictures are the driver and last two are passenger.

I forgot about this. Mine don’t have any gaps and fit securely too.

Still waiting on the blades to come in...........  Not looking promising.
