Wiper blades

Strangely mine have both just gone. Any recommendations? Are the Bosch aero ones worth the extra?

I got the eBay special 'aero' ones, cost next to feck all and I've not had a problem with them. They look better too. IMO I'd go with them as I can't see spending all that extra for essentially just a name.

I have these ones and i belive many others do,Good quality but also a good website to get them from http://www.wiperblades.co.uk/rover-m...-wiper-blades/

The Customer Service is great,I had problem with a wiper so they sent me out another one never had to send the other one back and it came next day.

I bought a set of aero blades and don't rate them above the original ones! They lift at speed and don't clear the whole screen even at low speeds, waste of money imo.

Opposite for me,I think the original ones are rubbish missing part of the screen,Never had a problem with the aero lifting at speed even in high winds.

Didn't have much choice in replacing the wipers as it wouldn't of passed the mot,And the original blades were only three years old.

I bought some Bosch o/e ones, useless in rain just streaked and at night was awful.

Got the ebay aero ones, drivers one comes with a aerofoil to keep it pressed down.

Great result, clears the screen, even dead flies get cleaned away, not just left in a yellow streak!!!

Only cost a few ££££ delivered, so impressed got some for our Punto as well.

Would not go back to the o/e ones.

You can get RainX or something to shoot the rain off.
