Aston Martin Vantage V8 2006 windshield wipers
Discussion
Good morning, I searched the forum. I only found a very old thread about the windshield wipers for the 2006 Aston Martin Vantage V8. I can't figure out which are the best wipers for my car.
I'm sorry to start a new, possibly pointless, post, but I haven't found anything from my searches. I also think there might be newer windshield wipers than the old thread from 2019.
I live in Italy and drive on the left. Any advice is welcome. Thanks.

If you have the old ‘hook’ style wiper arms, don’t bother with the flat-style blades - they don’t work… you’ll end up with the blade lifting off the glass, as the springs on the arms aren’t strong enough.
Go for good quality blades from something like Bosch.
I had the same issue and I eventually tracked down a set of the later wiper arms, which allowed me to fit the flat blades - MUCH better

Thank you all. For the answers.
Bosch Aero Twins I think we were talking.
As Nigel mentioned the early arms are not designed for flat blades like Aerotwins, you need the classic style wiper blade, or upgrade to newer arms that are designed to work with aerotwins etc.Bosch Aero Twins I think we were talking.
New style arms in pic below.
