Cost of wipers blades?
 
Somehow i got a wiper blade flapping about everywhere and so need to get some new ones today. How much have people paid in the past for these?? I know my local dealer is a bloody rip-off for parts and i ain't gonna get stung....

......incidentally, is partsboy still 'operating' his discount scheme?

partsboy has moved on unfortunately.

Halfords sell wiper blades. I wouldnt bother getting the more expensive Bosch ones - I have these and they dont sit flat.

Without having seen, tried, or knowing anything about Honda blades, I would say categorically that it is not worth trying them.

Amanda bought very reasonable blades from Halfords for her Civic recently - they even fitted them for free !

Not sure about S2000 though - the rather unique windscreen probably calls for custom short wipers and therefore more expensive blades.

I measured mine with a ruler....then went into Halfords and purchased a pair of Bosch wiper blades and I think I paid about

Just replaced mine...Halfords own brand even work fine.

I think the Honda ones from Norton Way set me back 15 quid, and they fitted them. This was just the blades, not the entire wiper.

Altho my S is only 3 mths old, I recently put on new blades as the OEM ones were so rubbish.

Got mine from Partco, Champion X41 and X51,
