I retro-fitted a set on my Bravo 1 Mk1 1.6 SX...I was not overly impressed.
The blurb states that there are 1,000 points of pressure and not just 4, as with the 'framed' blades.
What they dont tell you is that only 1% of the pressure is spread over 99% of the blade, 99% of the pressure is where the arm attaches to the blade.
This unevenness causes the blade to drag water back in an arc from where it accumulates by the 'A' pillar. Very annoying and distracting.
My Bravo 2 1.4 T-Jet 150 Active came with them as standard and seem to be 10 times better than the retro-fit ones.
Maybe the ones I fitted (bought off Ebay) were inferior to the OEM ones.

technically, the aero or flat blades, ahve infinite points of contact (not just a 1000) as teh do not have pressure points.
I fitted retro-fit Bosch ones to my mk2, and they were very good, but the cheap ones i bought off ebay before them were useless.
My GP has them standard and they really are awesome tbh.
