I just bought them from Aceparts ebay store (Just in time for the MOT, the ones I've got have been very good but are starting to get a bit tired :( ).

£10.98. 3p not worth picking the phone up :wink: :P

I don't have an egay account (and don't really want one) so I paid with paypal through their web site :cheesy:

Plus I don't have to leave a cheesy ebay comment about the whole experience :roll: A++++++++++++++++++++++++

My traditional type blades are shockingly shyte, I have a 1 year old windscreen (so that's nice) so looking forward to the new blade type!

I looked at their website, but it says £14.95 for them, :? hang on.......

great, stick them in the basket and it comes up as £10.95.... :frown: :?

I could have saved that 3p after all :lol: :lol:

Having refueled last night and putting in £30.05 of BP's finest instead of the desired £30.00 I don't feel so bad about it now -having saved 3 pence on this purchase 8)

Mine arrived today, and they're almost identical to the Valeo (£33 a set) ones I was taking off. Same fitment (I mean exactly the same, same mouldings and everything, except they haven't got the Valeo logo :oops: ) and very similar blades, the only difference being the "either hand drive profile".

Seem to work brilliantly too 8) .

Now she's all ready for Monday's MOT :|

You Bastard - mine haven't come yet :evil:

My car's in for the MOT and missed the new wiper fitment :frown:

I asked for them to be sent to my work (cos it said 48hrs) and I bet they tried on Saturday :roll:

You know something, I just remembered I had my flat blades on the V6 before I'd even left the seller's drive ;)

They've just arrived by Royal Snail 8)

Dare you to 'sniff' the rubber blade bit :shock:

I'll be fitting mine when I pick it up from MOT land.

How do you pray for rain again?
