Could anyone advise what brand of wiper are supplied in the Peugeot packaging?

Presumably they would have a lion logo on them and probably wouldn't have Bosch or anything stamped on them, but someone may know what blades they actually are.

    The arm on one of mine has Valeo stamped on it if it's any help. Couldn't spot a maker's name on the blade though

    I got in touch with a dealer who suggested Valeo usually supply Peugeot wiper blades.

    Whether that's true or not I don't know. I believe I can get a deal to take a pair in Peugeot packaging at roughly the same price as Valeos elsewhere - so I'll embrace the positive feeling of having Lion stamps on them, the joy of having a Peugeot branded sleeve, and the free screen wash top up Big grin

    Yes thanks.

    I paid a fraction of the £34 that a 20 and 22" would cost from Peugeot by buying written off stock in old packaging.

    I get the odd few ford bits and bobs free that gets written off because of packaging changes!

    Crazy how much money they waste on stupid Things like packaging changes or part number change, they sometimes juat skip it, no wonder they charge so much to start with.

    Are you sad enough to keep the empty packaging?

    Nope LOL
    Last winter I gave away 5 brand new batteries to freinds who's batterys had died, and I've just made £100 odd on e bay with transit parts i got given 2 years ago and didn't own one then and never had since!
    Free brake discs every pad change is pretty good!
    And I've just luckily got a genuine full clutch, slave cylinder and flywheel kit for £400 for mondeo st tdci
    Trouble is they make enough on rest of it, they wanted £800 for a driveshaft!!
