Replacing Wiper blades

[c6erb]

I'm an absolute layman when it comes to fitting/replacing etc. Any advice on the best place to buy them with regards to getting the right size etc? Thanks

Measure them..

[C3BER]

16inch any place you fancy.

Go halfords. They will match them and fit them for a fee

I think these will fit and they are cheap if you hurry:

And don't go for the new flat blade types - I did a few years ago and have never been very happy with them!

I did it to see if they would be better - and in my opinion, they're not

Cheers

I too tried flat blades on the cerb and not worth it. Didn't work very well at all. Stick with normal ones.

Mine had flat blades when I got it. The driver side was very poor and the passenger side somehow managed to miss almost all of it's swept area. I bought new arms and blades from Leven and am much happier with them.

Tesco flat blades £6 each 3 years on and over 10k great

I got mine from Wipex. They have a sprayhead on the wiper, so you can get rid the poor original tubes.

The flat blades don't tend to have enough compliance to work properly on the contours of the cerb screen...
