Took a gamble on a set of these on t'Bay. For £8 I thought if they're crap I'll just get some refills/inserts, but they're actually pretty good. They stick to the screen properly and don't skip or miss certain areas like some cheap aero type blades can do. Being picky I'd say the rear blade is too short, but looking at the way it is on the car I think the one I took off might have just been too long anyway.TLDR: decent aero wipers, £8.13 delivered. ________________________________________ Ph1 306 GTi 6 | RX8 231 S1 | YBR 125 Cafe Racer | MT-03 660 |

The ones on my hdi are £8 eBay jobs and had them on for 6 months best wipers I've ebro had.... No skipping no noise no smearing no lifting at speed etc. I thought the same as you if their s**t I'll get expensive ones but will be buying another set for the 6 in a couple of weeks.________________________________________ Black power baby!

I've been using the Goodyear aero ones from Costco the last few years, they seem to do the job but they dont seem to be as effective at speeds over 80mph. ________________________________________ Goldie the track car. |
