Thanks for the tip - I was thinking of buying some anyway, and what a price! The free delivery was a bonus.  ;D

Bu99er......just fitted some Bosch ones to mine. Typical. At that price, though, maybe get some spares, to fit in Spring!

Looks a good price.  But double check the driver's side.

I bought a pair of GM blades from eBay a year ago for a 9-5 and the groove in the back of the spoiler, where the arm fits, was angled the wrong way.  It will only fir a LHD car!! :(

Didn't find out until I went to fit them three or four months later.

Somehow you'd hope that a UK dealer wouldn't be flogging LHD wipers....unless they want a virtual brick thrown through their online-shop-window.

The picture on Ebay certainly looks like the RHD version, as it should be. I know Scotland is discussing independence, but I don't think driving on the right is on the agenda atm!  ::)

Could be dodgy crossing the border if they did....

Yes, but they weren't on Buckfast.

Perhaps whichever of us gets them first can do a quick check that they're RHD.
