2005 Defender 110 Td5 XS CSW Cairns Blue

[Binned] 2xSilblade wipers blades Free if collected

2 x 13" Silblade wiper blades...

Nasty and utterly useless [In my opinion]. Been on my 110 I think for two or three years and I really can't see what the fuss is about and indeed why I persevered with them. Swapped out today for some standard Bosch and looking forward to being able to see again when it rains

Although 2-3 years old, according to the Silblade blurb , they should still be very effective.. Ha, yeah, right...

So, if you want to try them out then you're welcome to them. They only have the standard defender fixings as I chucked the other adapters away.

Will post but then would want that cost covered. Free to anyone that collect from Oxford (OX4) during office hours or from the Claydons near Buckingham at weekends of evenings.

In fact, they're so

I don't really know why I'm even thinking of inflicting them on anyone else.... They have 24 hours stay of execution before I bin them ....

Try if you dare.... no money back guarantee ... you have been warned Jon - 110 td5 [sold]. Currently Defenderless.

I've got a pair lurking about so I don't want them, but also agree they're pretty useless! I found they just tended to 'smear' the screen rather than wipe it completely clear, especially so in cold weather

I think they also had greater friction on the screen and knackered a wheel box out. Pete

My first pair of Silblades were excellent and lasted about 5 years - very impressed with their water clearing ability
Replacement pair were rubbish and have been replaced by Bosch Aeros after about 6 months

They must have changed to a poorer silicon compound

I fitted a set when I rebuilt the 110 3 years back . To be fair they have been pretty good. They are starting to be annoying in light rain but still work really well in heavy rain
