I bought a pair of decent quality wipers from a local distributor called Auto Supplies, may have a website?

They were £18 odd for the pair! So I don't think that the price you've been quoted for one is very fair. Apparently these wipers have a bespoke clip?

Cheers for the replies-by bespoke do you mean rip off?

I think the standard wiper arms are designed only to take the aero wiper blades which clip on and off as opposed to conventional wiper blades

Whatever you buy ensure it works properly. A few years ago a Fiat dealer replaced my wipers with dunlop or another well-known brand. They were mentioned in the Fiat accessories catalogue. They were working fine for speeds of up to 40mph. Anything above that. half the drivers side was left unwiped! Apparently, it was an aerodynamic issue with the wipers and Fiat removed them from their accessories list.

I'm using Bosch blades from halfords, I think £18 per blade is the going rate.

No bespoke as in "Different clip to every other wiper blade out there"
