Good spot. Bosch wipers are my 1st choice.

I'm tempted to order a second pair and get another 10% discount.  

Done! Two sets ordered for £30.10

Arn't they for hook type arms?

My Octavia MkII FL has a peg in the side of the arm iirc.

They're compatible according to the listing.  I'll kick up a fuss and demand a refund if they don't fit...

They are the hook ones, you need the pin type fitting. Driver side is 24 inch too I believe, not 21.

Woops sorry folks.  I'll see if I can cancel the order.  Mods, can you remove the link to stop anyone else making the same mistake that I have.  Cheers!

Just go onto edit your post, remove link and save.

The time allowed to edit has expired. 

Must be because I'm a new member.

 

I don't have a halfords trade card :(

wiperblades.co.uk usually do a good deal on Bosch wipers

 

I can get a set for my 2007 Octy vRS for less than £20 right now.

Yes that's what I did recently.

Mike, is the time allowed for editting not due to planehazza not being a freedom member?

 

It was one of the things I had to get used to when my Freedom membership expired and I couldn't afford / warrant renewal.  However, now that it looks like I'll be keeping the Octy a while longer I may allow the moths from my wallet to breath fresh air for the split second it takes to get my credit card out.  

You keeping OK?

 

Mike

I am thankyou, I trust you and yours are well and enjoying your new life.

They are using "compatible" refills. It will not be Bosch quality. I'm not trying to offend, and if they work fine, then great save, but there will be a difference.

Bosch are overly expensive, but very good.

 

The Bosch ones from the above are not available until 11th February. Anyone used the Valeo Silencio blades?

 

Mike

I have used the Valeo's Mike and to be honest would not recommend as they are not as quiet and smooth as the Bosch ones in my experience.

They were purchased off Ebay, but believe them to be genuine - from motorist discount if I remember correctly.

They may be compatible but I have them on the Civic and cannot fault them.  The refills were a perfect fit and wipe perfectly - far better than the bosch originals that were on there - so I'm happy.

 

For reference, on the Octy, by far the best and longest lasting wipers I've had were direct replacements from Aldi!!!

Had me worried then - I've just bought a set on ebay and thought I'd been looking at the Bosch ones, but I got a set of OEM ones for £24 with free postage

I am not Brand loyal person, so I always looking for quality instead brand or price. For myself I made some experiment. Before Winter put new blades, for driver side BOSCH and passenger BOLK... So far, have no bad word about BOLK said. Today after Car-wash with Wax I noticed that wax 'fog' says longer on windscreen on drivers side-BOSCH  :peek:  Why so? 

Just take a look on Wiper blade prices in UK... I'm shocked :S  With Halford member card 26GBP is about 34€ Daylight Robbery!!!
