 What's up everyone, Takedown here. Welcome back to another video. Today we're going to be talking about the wipers for a Dodge Ram. Myself, I've been struggling to find the right wipers and I've actually found ones that work amazingly and they're the ones I'm going to be talking about in this video. Now, I do have a 2021 Dodge Ram Classic. Now, from what I've researched, it's not just a problem with the newer Dodge Rams. It's also with the older ones as well. I guess the windshields just curved a little bit differently and some of the aftermarket wipers just do not work right. It's actually recommended that you use an OEM wiper which do cost a lot and I'm going to be explaining that in a second. Now, after I started looking for new wipers, basically what my OEM ones were doing was just streaking very bad and very low performance in the rain and wet conditions. So, it was just time for me to replace the wipers. So, I did go to a couple parts stores and in their system it shows a 22-inch wiper. I did purchase a few and after installing it, I realized that the OEM wipers were actually an odd size and they're actually a 23-inch which no aftermarket wiper company makes a 23-inch wiper. Typically, usually they stay with even numbers. So, there's either the 22 or the 24-inch and in their system it shows a 22-inch. After installing it, not only was I missing one inch from what originally was on it but it wasn't doing the full 22-inch swipe whenever it did work. It was missing about an inch on each side. So, I'm missing a total of three inches with those aftermarket wipers that were size 22. I decided to come home, do my research and I found that a lot of Dodge owners, Dodge Ram owners were saying that's the OEM worthy best wipers to get because they have the best performance and they're actually made for the vehicle which does make sense. So, I did look online and shipping for these wipers was way more than the wipers were worth. So, I decided to go to my closest Dodge dealership and I'm just going to show you here. Here is the OEM wipers. Just look like a traditional wiper, classic J-hook. You just open that up, put the hook in, pull it and then you close it shut. The only difference is this here has a large wind reflector on it. So, this isn't really much different from your typical wiper except getting the OEM one at Dodge costs $45 for one wiper. So, for two that's $90 plus tax, that is a lot of money just for wipers and they may not last too long because in Canada we do have a lot of terrible weather, especially in the winter that could just eat through these wipers. So, to me there's no point of getting expensive wipers like this. Traditionally, wipers cost anywhere from 20 to $25 for a good all season or even winter wiper. So, to pay $45 just for one is way too much. So, I decided not to get them. I came home and decided to do some more research and that's whenever I found a lot of people were saying OEM was the best, but the ones that are next to the best and just one step down are these aftermarket ones that you can get on Amazon and other stores such as Canadian Tire here in Canada and that is the Bosch icon. Now, in their system yet again it did show that it should be a 22 inch. I did purchase them, come out in the parking lot, installed them and again they were missing parts of the windshield instead of the 23 inches which is what these are. It was only 22 inches. Now, at least these ones here did do a full swipe and they didn't miss a spot and it was crystal clear. However, it was still a little bit shorter than the OEM which was on the truck. So, I decided to go in and get the 24 size, the 24 inch one and it is a little bit longer, but it works perfectly for the Dodge Ram. Now, one thing I do want to mention is whenever you look up these ones here there is the 24 OEM which doesn't have the J hook. It has everything but the J hook. They also have the 24A and a 24B. Honestly, the A and B are the exact same wipers. So, whenever I went they had no Bs in stock. So, I decided just to get two A's and it works just the same. It's literally the same one except they just slap an A and a B on it. For example, a left and a right but it's the same wiper. It will work just the same. So, that's what I'm currently using. They do have a one year warranty at Canadian Tire. I'm not sure what the warranty is on Amazon and other sites and other companies but these ones here are the best wipers that I found for my Dodge Ram and they're likely what it would be sticking with in the future. Now, Bosch does have a couple other wipers as well but these ones here are more on the Bosch mid range. These ones here were $30 each. So, already that's $15 cheaper than the OEM and in my opinion they perform a lot better than the OEM were. Now, at $30 each at Canadian Tire at least I can save up my Canadian Tire money and whenever I need wipers use that or also use up some of my gift cards that I have. So, instead of buying it out of pocket on Amazon that's likely what I'm going to do but these should last a long time and they're actually have a high rating for in the winter as well which is awesome compared to all the other all season wipers. These ones are actually better performing in the winter to begin with. So, for me if you do have a Dodge Ram and you're struggling to find wipers instead of going with the $45 OEM wipers which I still can't believe these are $45 just for a single wiper but still instead of paying that you might as well do the $30 Bosch icons which are the next best wipers for a Dodge Ram and at $30 each they also do come on sale. So, usually when they're on sale they're about $25 each which is about the average cost of a wiper to begin with. Best performance and you're not going to miss any spots. Some of the other aftermarket ones even though they were a 24 inch for example it was missing an inch for the swipe an inch on each side of the wiper. So, you're buying a 24 inch you're only getting 22 inches of actual swipe for your windshield and clearance on the windshield. So, you might as well go with these which it doesn't miss a spot and they are amazing. In my opinion I probably could have went a step up. I could have went with a 26 inch because the windshield is so large and it would have cleared. However, these ones here were perfect for me and that is definitely what I recommend if you also have a Dodge Ram. So, hopefully this has helped you guys if you're struggling to find wipers for your Dodge Ram like I was. It took me a while and a lot of research and these Bosch icons are the best ones that I have found. So, hope you guys enjoyed this video. See you guys in the next one. Please take care. Peace.
