I want to replace the wiper jets for something tidier and quieter.

Clever Trevor and Leven Tech have versions for sale.

The Leven ones look like better value for money as you're getting a full wiper arm, blade and jet for more or less the same price as the wiper jet only Clever Trevor version, but does anyone know which one would be quietest at civilised motorway speeds?

Thanks!

Cheers ridds, much appreciated. If it's not the extra long tube feeding the wiper jet, and apart from the door mirrors, I wonder what the main culprits for wind noise are?

It looks like swapping over to a neater replacement won't make much difference in terms of wind noise, so I'm thinking I might as well go for the simpler Clever Trevor version and see how they work out. Thanks for all your helpful insights smile

Neat job Kevin, I'll have to find you at Chatsworth and have a look at the install if you're not too busy! and also get a look at the Leven (FUBAR/jackwibble) and CT (ridds/tonywilliams) versions and the huyundaı ones from scotty_d. Really looking forward to my first Chatsworth smile
