Hi chaps

Does anyone know if it's possible to buy 'normal' wiper blades for a 2005 Focus and if so can anyone recommend any?

I have the awful OEM 'aero' blades which drag accross the screen on the downstroke making an unbearable noise unless it's raining very hard.

Many thanks

Try cleaning the windscreen and putting some rain X on it, it will stop the juddering.

You'd need to change the whole arm.

But as the guy above said, you just need to clean the screen properly.

If that fails, just some good quality new ones, like the ones from Bosch.

Pick up some PIAA silicone wipers. They are expensive, but you will never have that nasty juddering again.

...particularly if you don't use the wipers - I found I didn't need to once RainX was used.
