Standard wipers for 2010 Vantage?

[steveatesh]

I've checked through the search but most threads are about the latest flat style wiper blades.

I simply need a replacement pair of wipers for my vantage, OEM style rather than the flat style.

I did fall for the "Halford are selling wipers off at £5.00 per pair" thread from a few years ago but sadly the info was wrong in that the wiper blades didn't fit AM.

I have found OEM blades on A.M.bits but at nearly £60 for the pair I'm hoping somebody can suggest a more reasonable source or is the dealer actually the cheapest source for this consumable?

There you go.

If the wiper arm and fittment hasn't changed from a 2006 model then the Bosch blades sold by Halfords do fit. I never tried the Halfords own brand ones

Thanks Neil, I bought two boxes of the Bosch wiper blades of the correct length in response to a thread post a few years ago - sadly I can't get them to fit and a review of the thread suggested nobody else could either lol...

I tried switching over the clips and rubbers as per other people on this thread but to no avail

Fortunately at £5 per box I could just about afford it........

I've checked Halfords on line but according to their site they don't do blades for Astons.

I'll check the ebay link - Dealers has come back at over £60 per pair too.

Will these also fit earlier Vantages (2007)? Seems obvious the wipers wouldn’t have changed!

Assuming you have the older hook type connectors and want the blades; you need to look for part numbers beginning with AR.

For instance my DBS has AR60N and AR500U, 600mm and 500mm respectively

Cheers Neil - a bewildering choice available! Interesting when I selected one type which Bosch said was for the car, then went to look at it to purchase the selling outlet said it didn’t fit the Vantage

If your model of car has the U shape at the end of the wiper arm, then its a standard fitting for just about any wiper blade. Some come with fitting kits, and you have to select and use the right one, but from memory the Bosch ones just fitted out of the box. It must be simple as even I managed it

I got these in 20”/19” and couldn’t be happier for my 2007 v8v
