I've just bought a set from Halfords (there own brand), £19.50 i think it was for a pack of 2 front wipers, the bloke working there was more than helpful and found them straight away

Apparently they don't do the back wiper he told me, all they had was a length or wiper that you cut to size!!

Make sure you get the aero type, the one's without the frame bit on them

Was the dealer price extortionate?

I did the same, i think fronts were only £11 each and back approx £9 which makes them a pretty reasonable deal i think, Halfords wipers always seem to last a lot less time in my experience
