Anyone used TruPart wipers?

Hi, was just wondering if anyone used TruPart wipers, I was originally looking at buying Bosch however Bosch is £7 while TruPart is £3.29, auto express seemed to rate them highly hence was thinking maybe they are just as good, I always like getting user experiences before buying :)

Thanks!

    To be honest I've never heard of Trupart.

    I use Bosch Wipers and I'm very happy to pay the extra for them. They last a long time and produce minimal smear.

    I use TP now for the last 3 years in our Primera and Rover and they are Brill!
    No smudges (even with loads of dirt on them) initially like any wiper, clean them every 2 month with some spirit and than they good .

    Last about 1.5 years which is good for £3.99 in my books. :j

    Use to buy Bosch before but these TP actually last longer.

  • Thanks for the replies, especially Avantra, I will go for TP if they are just as good, no point spending £5 extra!.

    Thanks again.

    Try http://www.wiperblades.co.uk/

    They sell Trupart, Champion and Bosch, among some other brands - I too used Bosch which have lasted about 10 months and still pretty good :)

    For me its Bosch or Bosch, I will never skimp on wipers again (not tried trupart though so might be worth a shot). The screeching you can get on cheaper ones is enough to drive you mad.

    I used a Trupart wiper on the rear of the ex-wife-to-be's Ka. OK, it wasn't that long ago and its not used every time it rains, but it is still doing the business.

  • Dont ever buy this rubbish wipers.The quality as they claim is reflected in the low price.Althought I was going to use them for my Honda, the adaptors broke as soon as I tried to replace the old ones.Not to mention about cleaning quality it is very poor.Better go for something like Valeo which is more expensive but worth it.:eek:
    Waddle you do eh?
  • Yup, My car demands Bosch :D

    I recently invested in some PIAA blades and I have to say they are awesome. Going on the motorway when is raining is now a joy, the water beads off the windscreen because of the silicone coating from the wipers. I know they are on the expensive side but I highly recommend them!
