which wipers opinions needed
I will need to replace the wiper blades soon.
Since most of forum members are probably in UK (rainy weather) was wandering what do you use as replacement and which blade works best for you?? |

Last couple of sets i have used are from https://www.wiperblades.co.uk
Whatever they have on offer usually their own. https://www.wiperblades.co.uk/volvo-...k-wiper-blades |

I got my current pair of wiper blades from wilkos, £2.50 each.
They are quiet & seem to clear as good as any of the more expensive blades that i've ever had ! https://www.wilko.com/en-uk/search/?text=wiper+blades+ |

Trico for me.
Last much longer than Bosch which Ive found to have short-lived performance going all smeary like they're contaminated or secreting something after a few months. |

Hong Fong Fuey, or 100 ptas. shop as we used to call them, single flat blades @ 3€ a go. They last 12 months without smearing or noise but then I have cleaned my screen with RainX and I have it in the wash tank!
