windscreen wiper blades

They are easy to fit. To get the right one, Halfords is a good corner. They can easily help u identify the correct type. They can fit but will charge u .though i have heard cases of where they let women off for free....talking about discrimination...hey what have the men done wrong? should be free for all sexes...

yes youre right there although i tend to find alot male working environments work that way

i dont go out of my way to try and get discounts sometimes i just get chatting in an honest friendly way and i get a couple of things cheaper but not alot

well ive looked in my manual and thats useless just says replace them every year!

so i might do it anyway just to be on the safe side

the rear is very smeary when i use it and actually make its worse in the end

ive given them a good old clean and yes theywere dirty lol

the blades are still smooth seem ok so we'll see how it goes

I clean mine with baby wipes seems to bring them up really well!

I agree the Lidi ones are ace, cheap as chips and still working fine 18 months later, having been a Bosch lover for many years previous!

What really knackers your wiper blades is grit and dirt. I find that just wiping along the blades weekly with a clean cloth pulls off all the grease and dirt. The grease off the road makes them perish.
I also use Bosch blades and any cheap glass cleaner to degrease the screen weekly. I fitted Bosch blades to my 4 work vans in March 2007 and they're all still going strong 80k miles later.

sounds like Bosch wiper blades are very good, anybody known where is the cheapest place to buy them.

The ones from wilkinsons, do they come with spoiler?

thanks...
