Stick with Bosch Super Plus, they work best and look oe
Cheers Don
To be honest, I've tried Super Plus twice on different cars and I think they are rubbish.Quote:

Wipers are really hit and miss which each set iv tried valeo and bosch iv had good and bad sets of both ,the bosch start out great but tend to go bad quite quick like after 6 weeks
I'm currently using Valeo aero wipers and they are quite decent.
I dunno...never had an issue and in 7 plus years of having the E46, I've only changed the wipers twice (with super plus)Quote:

I've always found the oem ones the best.
That said I stopped at Halfords in Mahon point to get a replacement bosche one for the pass side as SWMBO couldn't see a thing, they were out of stock though.
I think halfords are finished with bosch , they dont stock bosch batterys anymore and are replacing bosch ones under warranty with yuasa ones , they cleared all bosch bulbs and wipers on clearance last year
I got Bosch ones in Halfords three or four weeks back.
Seems they still have bulbs and blades on the website must be just the batteries they stopped doing unless the blades are just old stock
I picked this lot up in halfords for €5 a while back

I only use OEM wiper blades.
Started using them since I had the E31 as I couldnt find an after market blade for it. Same story with the E34.
I have found they last far longer than Bosch blades bought in Halfords.
They're only €45 for a pair to suit the e39 delivered from Car Part Pros so I feel an order will shortly be placedQuote:
