We had a hellish job getting decent ones for the Mizzy, and ended up getting good ones through Nora's sister (who own a garage in Stirling) when we were there last.

really. is that the while unit or replacement rubbers? I havent replaced mine in 2 years i have had it. the rover ones are pricey but then again i dont mind it as they last 2 years if you look after them properly and works out cheap per month. |

same as a disco! I must admit I acidently snapped off the aero foil bit off my wiper blade when it snowed and it cleans the windscreen much better now. No drips fly off like when it was on (where did that non english come from?) and then held water underneath and then dripped for 5 mins afte!

I know the feeling there, i ordered my new truck with a sun visor coz i thought it looked cool, its a pain in the arse in truth though. Waters forever dripping off and onto the windscreen... Still, it looks cool so hey.

Just been round our local well semi-local.. was taking daughter out for a driving lesson Tesco, and discovered that they are selling flat blade wipers. I only checked the price of one size, the biggest 24" long ones, these were £8.00 each.
No idea what they are like for quality, but I do know that for my wifes Focus Cmax, ford want £35 a pair.
Might be worth trying a set to see what they are like at that price.

Lucky for us the blade's we're the same size on the bus as they are on the Rover so I managed to keep them... I wasn't going to let them go, not at that price anyway lol. Tesco are now selling the there copy's for just £3 for any size! They do look cheap though but £3, Bargain?
