Wiper blades - which are best and place to order online

[Mark32]

Need to replace mine all round on my 182 Trophy. OE items from the dealer seem a little pricy. Just wondering which wipers are best and who makes the OE items?

Suggestions of which are best and where to order online would be great please

Tesco flat ones. I put them on my wife's car and I can't see much difference compared to my Bosch aero however our glass is sealed with Gtechniq.

I got Bosch Aero ones from eBay, cheap as chips!

Silcone PIAA wipers are the best I have used.

I have these Bosch Superplus on the front £12.12 delivered . They work perfectly well , they wipe , so can't complain .

Another vote for Bosch. I've used them on my 182 and 200 with no issues.

If you're near a branch of Euro Car Parts, their prices are reasonably competitive once you use the discount codes (May31 - 31% off). I think you need to reserve online and select Store pickup to get the discount in store, or they do free delivery. My last set came in a huge box full of packing material. I've previously ordered a set of Bosch wipers for my sisters Mini from a random E-bay car parts store, they came wrapped in that bin liner type stuff, so the boxes took a bit of a beating in the post, but they seemed undamaged.

I picked up some Bosch Aero's off ebay, no complaints so far!

Bosch ones from eBay. I'm not a fan of flat blades on a Mk2 Clio though so I just buy the normal ones.

Bosch wipers from ECP. Cost me £15 all in with a discount they offered.

Bosch Aero - only as they seem to last a bit longer than the Ebay specials .

I like the Valeo flat blades. They are as good as the Aeros but are more compact size wise.

Is this wiper blade on properly? ! I thought deflector faced the wind but finding it tricky to get on facing the other way.

Flip the plastic bit if you want it the other way.

I thought that would pop off but didn't want to snap it. Will look tomorrow.
Cheers boss.

Hi All,
Could someone please confirm for me if the back wiper blade size the same as the front? And/or if you would still recommend using the Bosch Aero 21-21 blade on the rear?
Thanks!

 

[MRBILLYUK]

The rear wiper blade is different to the front . Its only 12" long .

 

[SammyValenciaEsq]

Total noob question, I know. Appreciate the response. Thanks!

Just use that highly specialist tool the tape measure to establish which size wiper blades you are going to need.

Touché. I guess my concern was wether or not it would actually fit; different connectors etc. But most of those eBay pages seem to have compatibility guides on them so I'll put my faith in that.
