Far too expensive - as they are for tyres...

EBay too expensive for windscreen wipers? I always find they have cheap and expensive items and a lot with free postage which means you'll save money driving that gas guzzler of yours there. Unless ofcourse you need them straight away in which case Ebay is going to take a couple of days to deliver.

thanks. my ride is a 2000 model year though.

do i really have to buy the whole wiper unit or can i simply buy replacement rubbers and maybe make it a bit more affordable?

One or both, though. B & M do sets at 99p, but you pay for what you get. Some great, some crap. I had one fail MOT last year and found ASDA had my size in what I thought was a pair ,for £4, but turned out to be one.

I have started buying my wiper blades from Costco as they tend to have decent quality ones.

Cheapies are quite often a false economy as they couldn't wipe yer arse!

Poundland wiper blades?? Someones having a laugh. Either that or there's no respect for the car.

I use these, £1 a bag, unroll a strip and slide into the existing metal blade - when performance is reduced, simply eat and replace, no waste.
