I've used them before and they have multiple fittings (like most have) so they should do.
Sometimes having moments of extreme stupidity, I fitted a set to the wifes fiesta. Having checked they were the right ones 2 or 3 times, I bought and fitted them.
The drivers side one seemed to miss 2 inches above where the originals had cleared so I cursed them and vowed never to buy them again.
A couple of months later, I was sitting in the car in light rain, flicking on the wipers now and again. Then it hit me. I'd put the drivers side one on the passenger side and vice versa.

Doh!

I used the ones from Wilko and it came with multiple fixings, I couldn;t get a small wiper form teh rear screen had to go to Halfords. But the Wilkos ones didnt need the fixing for my focus, and they lasted about 15 months now with a fair bit of us, I am just about to replace the two front soon

I got some Autocare ones from Boyes for £3.99. Jury is still out on quality but at least they don't squeal like the 3 year old ones!!

Went over to Aldi/Lidl ones some time ago. Never had a problem, brilliant. Models are listed on the boxes. Some coming up shortly, although price seems to have increased a bit, but still miles cheaper than the posh brands in Halfords, etc.
