paid £34 fitted at stealers, none of my normal motor factors had the right ones.
Did you pay for front and rear wipers? Or did you get charged £6 for fitting your front wipers?  :shocked:

I bought some Halfords ones last week for £19.99 :smiley:

Are they as good as the OEM ones?

Windscreen wipers are windscreen wipers as far as I'm concerned.  They clear the water off the screen and I can see where I'm going.  However, there are some anal people around that I'm sure would find fault with them!

RainX always produces mixed reactions. Basically, it's very good if you're doing above 50mph as you don't need wipers but at lower speeds it's crap. Plus in the summer, flies stick to it.
