Flat wiper confusion



Bought some of the bosch flat wipers from josh hatton off here a wee while back.

After a bit of a wait they turned up, and being an unfortunate halfords employee i do my fair share of wiper fits, so straight away i couldnt see how they would go on the right way round.

Just like standard blades with a spolier on them, the flat blades are designed to fit on a car one way round, as they have an inbuilt spoiler.

However mk2 clio wipers are pretty unique in that they are LHD spec - they hinge from the opposite direction to most cars.

As such, the only way the blades i was sent fit is effectively upside down, as you can see in the picture. Now at motorway speeds they vibrate and shake up off the windscreen, which is a bit annoying.

Does anyone know a way of adapting the clips to fit?

I've spoke to josh but he says that his fit fine and in the correct direction.

Ideas?
