retail shops Wilkinsons & the Range are selling flat blade wiper blades at £3.00 each.  (£6.00p. b.o.g.o.f) . fitted a pair two days ago & they are good. 

[dbug]

Let us know in 6 months time if they are still ok

[Andy B]

They're only a few quid each on TC aren't they?   

[feeutfo]

As dbug says, they better had be good new. It's how long they last. Which historically isn't long going buy posts here.

Of the flat blades I've tried, Bosch aero twin, recommended by a member here seem to be best of the flat blades. Lasted two years. No more thumping or noise than gm ones. But they are nearly £25 a set.

Gm half that price, but last half as long. Or there abouts.

Ya pays ya money...

At that sort of price, does it really matter......

   you,ve hit the nail on the head there vamps . i paid £25 for my last  lot & this pair do the job better albeit i may get only a short period from them. at the price i could go & buy 4 more pairs.

Fitted Bosch Aero ... whatever ... last June ... and already on the way out!
Will have a look in Wilkos ...

I paid around £7 iirc from a certain Supermarket I hate beginning with T, had them on two winters now and apart from being a bit squeeky at times they are still going strong!

[tidla]

Thought id try the new "technology" flat blades before my freezing run to France. nowt wrong with the old ones. Big mistake.

Squeaked all the way, left the screen on the curved part of the screen and collected ice like it was going out of fashion.Even with a squirty squeezed out the window they still smeared. (Champion brand)

Old bosch ones refitted.

(Plus the clips are dam ugly)
