Cheapo ones don't last 5 mins, but Bosch or genuine GM ones do - my GM ones on my C lasted 18 months if not longer.

Thanks Alun Wanted to do it while I could and while it was dry

That's not too bad Deano, for a 1.4 yeah? Although I suppose I would have expected it to be lower with 3 NCB though tbh.

I got my flatblades from eBay

love it dave

regarding flatblade wipers, i had valeo's on my fiesta which lasted a year no problem, valeo's on my focus which have lasted 18 months so far and just bought some cheap ones for the puma from www.wiperblades.co.uk which have got good reviews.

they will last ages if you only use them when you should.

Had to be an SRi tbh, thought I might as well go all out with this one seeing as I've been putting up with base spec for two years
