In fact, thinking further, I will order an OE Arm into stock then I can find the best fit without hassling anyone! Paul Redding

Fitted a set today and they seem to do the job - time will tell if the clip is up to the job. "On first name terms with my local Dealer......now."

Seems loads of members are giving these wipers a try. Mine are ok for the mo, but these do seem good. |

Mine got a good work out today, work just as well as the Bosch ones, the retainer for the wiper half way down the arm is now redundant as it doesn't reach the new lower profile blade but the blade moves smoothly and doesn't fish tail, they are noticeably quieter on the screen and less wind noise, took them to a fast speed and they don't lift either...

If the hammer fails, there are two parts to the clip, you have to squeeze both sides in on the underside of the arm to release the clip from the holes on each side, doing this snapped mine into several pieces.... Then there is another bit that just pulls out.... Basically you don't want any plastic bits left on the end of the arm... Pete
