Have you not just tried dealers, I had mine in for service and and needed blades so asked them out of curiosity how much they were, sure they were about £25 for full arm and blade so got them changed and they even fitted them for me.

I did try these but the passanger side blade slipped out in heavy rain on the motorway and tangled with my drivers side blade causing the lot to ping up! use them at ur own risk!

Went to a dealer today got some for £24 so not bad!

Cheers for your suggestions!

doesnt sound like a good thing to happen. might be worth getting a brand name next time just to be safe!

Whatever you do, don't get the Valeo aeros from www.wiperblades.co.uk - they squeak like crazy & it doesn't matter if it's a monsoon, light drizzle or snow.

Bought some VAG 'aero upgrade' wipers from a VW dealer - the Mk4 Golf/Polo's fit Leons - for £20-ish (cheaper than the Valeos at £28). They clip onto the OE arms, look good, clean brilliantly & are silent.

I wouldn't get Valeo. I've had a few sets from Wiperblades.co.uk, but they've always been Bosch, never had an issue with those.
