bosch icons are great, but upgrading to the 24" blades is nice, especially if you are tall like me. Always nice to be able to use the majority of your windshield, not the stock version. Hence, the wiper mod?

Show me a graph, and make sure it includes coefficient of drag differences between the 22, and the 24, also include service life expectations for different vehicle velocities, and snow or hard rain load.

. Just joking . Nice to see you stick around ernest, even with the slight "upgrade". Too bad I didn't understand anything on you CAT Service post, ernest. Maybe someday I'll have a shred of knowledge. 
That's why I hope you stick around. Now, about that graph with service life expectations . . . .
