The Heyner blades are very good.
From the website pictures, it looks like only the “hybrid” ones have the correct fitting for my MY2017 with the little central popup button, other types look like an adapter may be required, losing the “OEM” look important to some…. Thumbs Up

Suppose now I”ll have to go out and take a pic of mine….. Confused “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?

Aha! Well, look at my HEYNER blades:

I’d say these are “Hybrid” except I wasn’t sold them as that, possibly only a new marketing word…
They stay perfectly flat against the window, no juddering whatsover, no smearing, no lines or unswept bits, etc. I do use full Winter-strength premium screenwash all the time, if that makes any difference?
(The Halfords Cherry flavour one actually) Laughing (and NO, I didn’t taste it, to answer the inevitable question!) The rear one is just the old-fashioned classic wiper type. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?

Thanks for that, I'll wait till I get mine back to check the fitting and be a guinea pig for the hybrid ones, then we can compare wipers.............

How sad is that..... Rolling Eyes Pete

Heyner wipers

My HEYNER wipers came with an adapter that had to be fitted to the arm before you clipped the blade part onto them. I also noticed, for me, the passenger side did not fit to the curvature of the screen and subsequently did not wipe the full screen.

Not too impressed. Keith
