I have Bosch Super Plus on one car and just put Michelin Stealth on another. Both excellent.

If you can beg, borrow or steal a Halford's trade card, wiper blades are about a third of the posted price with it.

I've just bought and fitted two of these Unipart ones, seem fine, I tend to try and replace them once a year anyway. £3.07 each with the code PAYDAY50 at the minute. Free P&P too!

The last wipers I brought were Champion from DMGRS. Unfortunately they were a one time offer. They have lasted the best part of two years & are only now showing signs that they need replacing.

Bosch Aero flats on my ZT, just over 2 years and no signs of smearing degradation, not the cheapest but I would buy them again.

I just had a pair of these delivered, purchased through their sister site Carparts4less, they were discounted and then there was a further discount code for a few days.

So I got the pair for £2.18 inc. free P&P which was not bad

Just to continue the replacement wiper blade theme …
I'm planning on replacing my front ones. I have just measured the existing Bosch ones which don't seem very effective and probably need renewing before an imminent MOT. They are both 21".
Most of the ones I've checked out seem to be 22" but did find these on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/142240409...&ul_noapp=true
Twin pack 21" and 22" and sound quite good if a little pricey. Checking out Eurocarparts they have Bosch Aeros for about £19 for one.
So rather confused is having a set of two sizes a good idea or should they be both be 21" Any thoughts/experience? Thanks. Ray
