Default Retro fit aero wipers

Just fitted some retro fit aero wipers from ebay for 8pounds to the s, in my opinion the quality is rubbish, i had the real deal on my polo.
i wasnt expecting them to be amazing for that price but
there just rubbish plastic clips and u can remove the wipers by just sliding them off, they dnt seem to click into place or anything

any1 had the same problem, or are the BOSCH retro fit ones any better??

I've tried a couple but found the Valeo ones the best. Haven't tried Bosch cos I found their standard wipers pish.

Yep! Ive had the Bosch Aero blades on for a year.

They are excellent in all respects (including being quiet)

What's wrong with the OEM ones? Same price
and the quality is good too.

Well besides the aero wipers looking better they do tent to work alot better in my opinion as they are better designed!
