valeo aero wiper blades

[AshCupra300]

Adjusted mine, not as high as in the above pic, but just above the VIN number and I know have about an inch between the end of the blade and the trim

As for them working better, the passenger wiper was still dragging on its down stroke, so gave the blade a bend so it sits better on the screen and it seems to be ok for now.

I got a set of these about 8 months ago in spain and adapted them for RHD a car, I've have no problems with them, but i did need to reposition the passengers side arm. Yes they do lift a VERY high speed, but frankly only above the legal limit, and in the rain you should not be doing over that really.

Cool

bending is def the way to go ro the passenger wiper likes to drag on the down stroke

got mine this morning
just fitted them
no issues with hitting the windscreen plastic
seem to sweep fine even without washer fluid, going out now so give them a test up the dualer........

..cope with the speeds of 70-80 well
only gripe is that pass blade smears a little on its way up-but its not really in the field of normal vision.

very impressed with these so far
its always the little things!

Doh'

Gonna give these a try as my Halfords ones are crap

Passenger side only gets half wiped as the blade is not flush with the screen (not fouling though)

Drivers side rubber is coming loose at the right hand edge and flapping about when wiping (more so when at speed)

Going down to Brum next weekend so I hope delivery is quick enough

Well glad to see my thread is still alive lol

wish now id asked the website for commission

just glad to hear that people have found my info usefull

as for mine they have had a ruddy good test with all the wonk weather we have been having and my wipers are still mint (highly recommended)

Just to add my findins to this thread after owning these for a week in bad weather...

I have had no end of trouble with the passenger blade dragging on the way down and making the most annoying squeak and as all it has done in South Wales is piss down this week it has got to me, so I have removed the passenger valeo blade and put a new stadard Bosch one (drivers side with spoiler) on, dropped the arm to its original position and it is smooth as silk....
I will see how it goes with the driver side as I have also had this missing water in the middle of the screen, about two inches long and this at only 70-80mph

Arrived this morning - fitted nice and fast unlike the old ones I took off

Been out for a spin and tested them at 'motorway speeds' and they seem to be perfect and quite honestly silent

Top Purchase

Got mine delivered on Friday and fitted them in 2 minutes... All good so far with no catching problems, lifting or smearing. very impressed and they look much better...

 

[heyd_romanian]

Just bought mine, so they should arrive on Tuesday!
I think they will fit on mine as the arm stops about an inch under the tax disc.
Will post back after a test drive!!
