Will appreciate someone pointing where to purchase reasonably priced.
TIA |

I'm not sure what brand Volvo supply, but I've been happy with Bosch wipers from Auto Bulbs Direct....

I've used Bosch blades, they work fine.
I've had Volvo blades and I wasn't impressed with them at all. They only lasted 18 months before they started smearing the windscreen. I always de-ice the windscreen, so it wasn't a case of turning them on over an iced windscreen (which rips them). I always cleaned the wiper rubbers by hand too, which gets dirt/grime off them. They just weren't good quality and rock hard. I won't be buying Volvo wipers again. |

My 5-series had them replaced in 2021 and has done 48k miles with them since. My partners Skoda lasted 3 years and 32k miles with them... |
Volvo don't make the wiper blades anyway. They'll likely be made by Bosch or Valeo, but Volvo put them in Volvo packaging and sell them at twice the price as a "genuine" part.

you buy Bosch in Halfords and you are lucky if you get one year out of them... Bosch make several grades of quality for different manufactures needs. |

I bought the Bosch wipers from a local parts store (not Halfords) and they've outlasted the Volvo ones already. |
