More Ties! Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Anyone have any recommended companies/ websites for new wiper blades? My blades are effing pathetic in the rain and need replacing. Ta muchly. Quote
spursmaddave Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 PIAA wipers are the preferred choice although a lot of people swear by the floppy aero ones, but I think they look cheap and nasty Quote
Ekona Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Autobulbsdirect.co.uk Bosch retrofit Aero blades are awesome Quote
More Ties! Posted March 5, 2012 Author Posted March 5, 2012 Ta muchly. Bosch retrofit aeros it is. Quote
Ekona Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 I win Dave To be fair though, the early blades were awful, and the Bosch ones are the first I've come across that were good enough to make me leave the PIAA ones behind. I'd exclusively used them for years, but I don't regret the swap now. Quote
spursmaddave Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 They might work ok but I don't think they look right, I have them on the Leon and got some for the Zed but they didn't suit it Quote
Zugara Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Bought some flats off eBay for silly money,£8.00 if I remember, great wiper blade. You don't need to be a fashion slut and buy the expensive ones..... Quote

Ricey Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 I got some areo blades for my Z4............snapped them into pieces for being utterly sh**e. Quote
roscopervis Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 I got some Bosch Aeroblades and they are ok up to motorway speeds. However, they are terrible at motorway speeds as they just smear the water on the way down to the park position. Quote

Neilp Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 I have the PIAA ones with the aerofoils on both front ones and they work brilliantly Pm chilli red as I think she may have some left from her clearance sale Quote
