Compared to the Bosch ones I had on VeeKay, these seemed too cheap to be true but having bought a set, I have to say I'm very pleased with them so far :)

Yes, I found it useless too. I entered Rover 75 2003 (checked both choices) CDTi and was told they were not suitable for my car. The members that have got them; what did you ask for in the compatibility section?

The ones linked in Pauls opening post are suitable for all 75s and ZTs. Originally our cars would have been fitted with 1 X 21" and 1 X 22" but 2 X 22" or 2 X 21" are OK. The fitment is standard hook type.

I for one won't be fitting these, why? because the best way to see how good they are is to go out in the rain. I for one have had enough rain over the last 12 months..... :gmc:

I have ordered and fitted mine and they are superb. They are all rubber, ie. no metal frame; they appear to have a spring steel reinforcement moulded into the blade, which results in a fairly pronounced curve, but then straightens to the shape of the screen, once the wiper arm is pushing it back onto the glass. They work better than the standard blade.

The cost was £11.66p for two sets, ie., four blades (cheaper than rubber re-fills for the old style), and including carriage. Since seeing them on here, I have noticed that most newish cars have them as standard.

Are there any that are suitable for the rear wiper on a tourer? Had an aero style on on a vw polo rear wiper and it made the back look somehow tidier.

The BOSCH H351 has an integrated cover.
