Wiper Blades

Hey. I drove back on the motorway yesterday and the drivers wiper blade went flying off never to be seen again.

Anyone got a replacement pair or no where I could get some from? They needed replacement anyway as hardly cleaned the screen anyway. 🙄

Thank you. Will measure the passenger side as an idea so no the size.

Early wipers were a spoon fitting for the blade whereas later used a bayonet attachment.

 

The blades used were all made by Tex Automotive

I replaced the wiper rubber with standard Halfords wiper refill blades and it made a big improvement. It’s also worth ensuring the blade is perpendicular to the screen by twisting the wiper arm slightly.
