Who do we like for wiper blades on a 4200 please ?
They both appear to be 550mm (l&r)....
Keen to dodge oem prices, and wonder that there arent more up to date products perhaps, with more favourable pricing out there..?

Grtzzz...

Are they 22" blades ? and has anyone bought any flat blade ones that don't come off the screen at over 140mph? My passenger side one bent in half on the way back to the ferry port at Le Mans last year .

Well those ones aren't. They were for the station wagon :D

Not tried wiping at 140, I'm afraid.

Oh I've certainly not had issues with them lifting. I think I topped (crapped out) at 147 at Brunty

I'll let you know after Ive nuked the screen and sealed it, as only then will I be fitting them...

On the Tesco ones I bought they did have a profile or built in spoiler. I had to flip the central fixing round the other way so the spoiler was at the back...or they would have lifted. Simple to do.
