My old wipers on the way out so fitted some of these. Fitting very simple and seem to work very well. My only concern is that the plastic springy clips that slot into the retaining holes on the wiper arm seem a bit flimsy and only really engage properly on one side of each wiper. Have tried pulling at the blade to see if it comes dislodged and it seems ok, but will need to keep an eye on it. 2014 5.0 Supercharged Autobiography & 2015 3.0SDV6 HSE Lux Discovery 4

I agree with RRblue's comment re the springy clips they look a bit flimsy - just need it to rain now Whistle

For those who were wondering about fitting flat wipers... I have just fitted these



Initial test show these are much quieter than my old original types - Clonking noise gone - happy days Very Happy

Mine clunk even SWMBO said "get some new windscreen wipers". So is it Ebay or Advanced Factors - the posted link doesn't go anywhere.

I'm happy to wait, who knows maybe it will stop raining! Geoff

Yes I was going to get them from AF but it did not look like they had any on their website.

Just fitted these, a little fiddly getting the plastic insert out of the original blades, much better wipe (originals a bit shot anyway) but alas the "clunking" on direction change remains. Crying or Very sad Geoff

clunk remains Shocked

The ONLY reason I bought these was to eliminate that clunk... my genuine LR wipers are just fine, with a clunk

Thought these ones took that away. Doesn't make good reading now to find out the clunk remains and they are fiddly to fit? Is this where I put the car details and a bit about myself ?........

Nick - I think there's an adjustment I can make - Stan has shared it before so maybe all is not yet lost Very Happy Geoff
