I fitted those and took them off five minutes later, they are not very well made and the washer part is rubbish.

i have fitted flat bladed wipers of a decent make from http://www.wiperblades.co.uk/?gclid=CKCw0JzwuKkCFQ... and whilst they work very well they miss part of the passengers side of the screen nothing major, also fitted the upgraded washer jets from racetech, although alot of fluid gets wasted as its thrown above the car, so need to block one of the holes up i think. its on the long to do list.

Mine are great.
I have some modifications from Raceproved - tidier looking and more effective jet.
The leven ones are well thought of.

I used PIAA silicone wipers which look like normal wipers but leave a film of silicone over the screen like rain x but better. I also take the passenger wiper off as the drivers wiper covers 75% of the screen and allows the wiper motor to work much better. Needs to go back on for MOT time though!

+ 4 - But removing the passenger wiper is also a big improvemement.

I got some £6 items from Costco which do the job well - think they were Goodyear. They'll suffice until I get the washer jets sorted properly.

Wiperblades' finest flats with Clever Trevor spray tubes. eBay ones are 'not very good', mainly because they don't handle curved windscreens well and sizes aren't suitable.

I have had Wipex before, but these guys were unable to deliver the correct wipers. So I went for the Leven ones, and they work perfect. Just tested again today (quite rainy over here).
