Are these wiper blades any good ???

I use the Bosch ones, they're excellent. Don't quite get the bit by the tax disc on the pax side, but they're so much better than OEM otherwise I can forgive them that.

Cheers :thumb:
 
I tried those but found them to be noisy.
I went for the PIAA silicone wipers which leave the screen unbelievably clean as with each wipe they add silicone to the glass. You get a flat one and a curved one for the passenger side. They cost about £50 a pair. Or you can keep your existing frames and just buy the blade itself for about £8 each Part SKR55E.
 
Interesting, I found these to be better than the PIAA ones, which are already excellent and what I used to use. I didn't notice any noise difference between OEM, PIAA or Bosch though.

Either or though, both great choices.
 
I fitted these to mine recently. Pretty pleased. As someone else has said it doesn't quite clean the tax disc area but nothing to worry about there. The driver's side was skipping slightly on mine below the central mirror but that seems to have gone now.

Overall seems a good buy.
 
I fitted the PIAA blades. They give me great screen clearing during rain, and importantly, during mist, allow the moisture to collect and run so that wipe is not needed
 
Gollom a man after my own hairstyle!

When, by chance, at my OPC, noticed one of the new PIAA frames had split. So preplaced both wipers there & then with OE, which are more robust, work just as well and are cheaper.
