Wiper blades

[rk2009]

I'm thinking about buying these flat wiper blades. What do you think?

Do those look just the same as the flat blades that everyone has on this forum?

I've found this for the rear too. Will that fit my expression?

Cheaper in Tesco (apparently). But yes, they look the same.

And yes.

 

[rk2009]

I can never find the flat blades in Tesco. So you think these will work fine? I don't want to by crap ones.

 

[SC03OTT]

Lol, I could never find them in Tesco either. But yeh, judging by the pic (which is probably generic anyway) and the description, they will fit and be fine.

 

[rk2009]

Cool, I'll get them later. Cheers.

 

[nick.]

they will fit no bother m8 they are normally in the section near where they sell all the magizines, I asked though cos I could never find them. No complains about them either

I've found the section, and I've found Tesco's blades... it's just that the flat ones are never there

Get the flat ones from aceparts on fleeBay. I have them and they are fantastic. Miles better than the crappy plastic things. Much more even and consistent contact with the windscreen, especially at speed. I won't go back!

They appear to be but are different ebay listings. So yeah, whichever. They are great, would highly recommend them.

 

[rk2009]

Cool. Have you got any pics of them on your car?

Tbh I have some cheap flat wipers from ebay and they are fine. However my Dad goes to Costco and he picked up some Bosch flat blades for like £7.

 

[MatthewR]

[SC03OTT]

£6.30 for the pair? You sure? They're £6.30 each up here.

 

[Anton/ClioSportRep]

I don't actually know whats wrong with them their brand new! The left hand side is fine but when its the right it like leaves a big trail of smeared water really p***'s me off I wanna hunt for some 182 flat ones or some Mercedes ones you know the ones?

 

[Anton/ClioSportRep]

Wow from where LOL, I payed like £12/13 for mine and one side just doesn't wanna do what its supposed to do

positive. i think they might have been on offer (not as though there not on offer all the time with it being so cheap anyway) but we ended up getting 2 sets for my clio, a set for my mums i10, a set for my sisters aygo, and 2 sets for her boyfriends focus.

all came to a total of 37.80
