i boought a "performance bosch blade of an appropriate lenght...it still smeared.

Surely it doesnt need to lotus specific....if it the right length and can follow the curvature should that not do it?

cheers

Rain-X do some really good ones, a bit difficult to get hold of in the UK.

Have just fitted some PIAA silicon wipers on the Chimaera, which has a fairly curved screen. These wipers do seem to have more flex than normal wipers and their performance is excellent. I presume the wipers on the S2 are sourced from a mainstream manufacturer, so adapters in the kit should work for you. If you can stomach the price, they could be worth a look.

Cheers,

Steve.

My old blade smeared badly, so when the car was serviced last i asked the dealer to put another blade on (about £25) however the new blade wasn't much better so i went back again and they replaced it (no extra charge), its not 100% but has got a lot better over the last few weeks (it been on for about 2 months now), not sure if it needs time to settle in? From my experience my advice would be to let you dealer sort it out, and if it ain't right take it back. if they are good dealers they will sort it out.
Good luck as there is nothing worse than driving a car that costs a fair few quid and you cant see where you are going!
