I wouldn't know Ken. Mine are rusty and the rubbers are failing at the edges. I want to change them before I need to get the screen professionally polished

I'm tempted to go for Silblades next time http://www.mudstuff.co.uk/products/wiper-blades.html Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world. Not a fashion vehicle, but fashionable to own. Made for the needy, not the greedy. Ta ta Defender

I had some Silblades but found they couldn't clear the water quick enough in heavy rain (left a thin layer behind) so changed to Bosch Aeros - never had a problem since Thumbs Up

Each to their own though. Can you send Silblades back if you're unhappy with them? It wasn't worth it for me to send from Germany anyway Sad Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...
