Yup, they look to be the same ones as mine, apart from hook fitting.
Er Pete, do they still have the hosepipe ban on in E. Yorks, then? Whistle Laughing
Are you getting full coverage on the passenger side? Question

Chance of a shower your way after lunch tomorrow, so wash the car in the morning to guarantee it rains, then report back here! Whistle “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?

No hosepipe ban here but can't be bothered to wash it as the rain we have been having leaves dust on the car....

The old passenger wiper was shorter than this one...!!! Pete

I’ve compared mine with a new set of VIPA ones, the Vipa blades are very low profile and without any clip-on parts, so look more OEM, but they don’t have any leaf springs inside.
The Heyer ones are also low profile, but also have the sectional springs inside the beam, I don’t know how they manage to cram it all inside such a low profile.
In theory, you would expect the Heyners to follow the curvature of the screen better, having multiple springs rather than just the one, (being the beam itself).

Interested to hear what you think of them in action…….. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?

Well I can honestly say these Heyner wipers are up there with the best, very good fit with no play, totally silent on wet or dry screen, no fishtailing or vibrating at all and clean with a very good complete arc....

All in all excellent, just see how long they last... Thumbs Up Pete

@Heylands:

Phew! Embarassed That’s me off the hook then, Pete? Glad you took the punt and liked them.
See page 1 folks, had mine on 16 mths, still as good as day 1. Thumbs Up “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?
