General Wiper Blades

[2ippy]

I need to change my wipers on my stilo, but i noticed the passenger side has a curve to the blade to avoid the rubber seal around window.

Checking up I need a 22" and a 19", so anyone have same and do they knock?

Valeo or Boosh or should I just refill

Plus they're a heck of a lot easier to pop on - took me literally 2 secs for each one

I got mine from wiperblades.co.uk picked the aero style VW type blades.... brilliant performance and no more juddering or squeeling. Look quite nice too.

I've got a pair of blades from LiDL on mine which I think cost me about £3 lol

Basically I can't fault them (German designed most likely)

You clearly don't need to have a curved passenger blade although I normally like to keep things original if I can.

your all lucky only place i could find some for mine was fiat, as they are flat ones as standard and was no where on the net that would recognise that

Not necessary with the curved blade, just a shorter one.

Thanks for the link.
A small hijack: since we're on the subject of wipers - can you get a new blade for the rear or do you replace the whole arm?

Cheers

Go to a motor factors just buy the blade and cut it to size I got my blade for about £2.50 and cut it now I have a spare blade

www.shop4parts.co.uk supply a genuine refill.

Be wary of cutting down a full size blade as I've found some will smear or simply not wipe cleanly.

Yes, you can retro-fit flat blades to cars with old arms with the hooked ends but they won't fit final spec cars cos their arms don't have hooked ends. You have to go to a dealer.
