yep - what he says - or you could pay over the odds for them like what I did from wiperblades.co.uk.

Guys has this now sorted the scuffing of the window, as I am also getting the smears across the passenger side, really annoying actually, but I do not get a thud.

Just had the first service on my 10 month old car, asked them to adjust the wipers to cure the clunk. they said the ruber was hard and charged me £28 for new blades. We have an understanding that if they have failed to cure the problem I will insert them in an area of low solar activity. Let it rain. letters not necessarily in the right order |

Just fitted a pair of 808's (£16.20 on ebay) and no more thud. This forum is great. |
