The ones on my car atm are rubbish!

Thinking of getting some 'aero' ones, want to know which ones are best to go for?

Make sure you get some you know will work - I bought some of the blade type ones on internet - guaranteed to fit blah, blah.

They didn't have enough spring in them to bend with the shape of the windscreen - subsequently 2 or 3 big patches that didn't wipe at all - in the bin & got some bosch ones with the spoilers... Perfect now!

My front wipers are horrid as well, and they make quite a bit of noise. I want to try a set of these bosch wipers for my mk3 ibiza, i'm just stuck on which one to get.

What's the difference between these - http://www.wiperblades.co.uk/product-detail.php?Make=104&Model=1384&Year=2001&Position=5&ID=39

and these - http://www.wiperblades.co.uk/product-detail.php?Make=104&Model=1384&Year=2001&Position=4&ID=84

the first are £22, and the second are about £18. Which set did you guys get?

The first set are 'aero style' wipers so are flat like this

where as the second link are to traditional style ones with the frame

Just for reference, heres my ibiza with normal blades

Cheers for the pics Ant, just to add, will the aero ones require any extra fittings or will they just plug in lik the traditional ones?
