the drivers side windscreen wiper on my T350 has started making a god awful noise again so i am needing to buy another set 9that must be 4 sets in 18m)!!!! but I wondered if anyone had upgraded to the new flat wipers as seen on most German cars these days?

They look pretty cool but not sure on fitting. Was it a picture of Gaffer's car that I saw them on?

I put a pair on my old Chimaera but wasn't too impressed. They struggled to clean the outside of the screen and smeared quite easily. Replaced with the leven curved ones and they were a hundred times better.

Can't comment on the T350 though as I've just got standard ones on mine at present.

I've got these on mine T350:

....and there crap.

So I'm going to get some PIAA Silicon blades I had on my last few cars - pricey but you can't beat em.

Maybe some of the other Universal fit Aero blades may be better, but I heard the Bosch ones are dire also.

Basically like RainX but MUCH better.
I applied this stuff about 6 months ago on both my cars and have not really used the wipers since (apart from washing the screen).

I got some for mine just after xmas, Got some Bosh ones from Halfrauds, they seem to do a good job, but only tried them with the washers as cars been sat in the garage since then.
I also got slightly shorter ones as the ones on there were hitting the rubber around the screen, very nearly hitting the body work.
