If you need some wiper blades...

[14N]

...... I can recommend these.

I recently replaced mine (I needed 1x front and the rear one) and for the sake of a tenner for a set of all 3, I thought I'd give 'em a go.

 

I really can't fault them. In the heavy rain we've had recently, they've performed really well at all speeds (up to 70 mph naturally officer).

 

Just thought I'd pass this on

I got some of eBay not so long ago to, it mite even be the same eBay item. So far can't fault them +1 frome me

[jinxy]

Got the same ones myself, been posted on here before - great for the money!

 

Flat blades look a lot 'neater' to me too.

 

Only slight issue I have is the rear clip needs pressing back in every now and then, seems to work its way loose...

I have these exact wipers on my car. They do work well, look nice and are a good price - but my set have an odd characteristic that they seem to exude white powder or crud from the rubber, which takes a bit if scraping to get off usually (and it keeps coming back). I've no idea if that is common to these particular blades or if mine were a friday afternoon batch - I've never had blades do that before. I figured it's because they are very cheap.

 

I was thinking of getting Bosch aero blades next time.

Either that, or someone in your 'hood has seen how good the wipers are at scraping flat surfaces and are using them to make really long lines of coke! (Not the sugary drink variety) instead of the 'conventional' credit card method

 

At least they put them back when they're finished!

Forked out on Bosch Aeros myself, in the grand scheme of upgrading the car £25 isnt a big a deal - had them a year, and still going strong

Don't worry you're not going crazy. Mine on the 350z do this aswell. Its on the topside of the blade so doesn't affect the performance of the wiper but looks pants. I have no idea what causes it. At first i thought it was just polish that i may have splashed onto them when getting a bit over enthusiastic but then i noticed it when i hadn't polished the car. Its a weird one. I have these wipers on other cars too but don't get the same problem ???

PIAA s's FTW

[pcw1982]

Just ordered a set for the Roadster will report back....

[pcw1982]

Received and fitted, plenty of rain about to test them as well.

 

Work well at speed, annoying squeak at low speed though.

 

Dont come with the spoiler bit, not sure if you need that seem to work ok without.

 

But for £7,

I've been using the Valeo Silencio xtreme's and they seem quite good. Decently priced for silicone wipers too.

[Dicky]

My drivers side has a wind deflection gizmo on it, do these come with that on? Can't tell from picture

[14N]

No they don't come with a spoiler/wind deflector.

 

Mine are still performing well and I can't really fault them, especially for the money.

 

The only time I've found they've squeaked, is when the windscreen is virtually dry, but it's only a quite squeak and to be expected with a dry ish screen.
