Re: Bosch Wipers

Mine have been fitted for 6 months or so and are still going strong. Work well. Highly recommended.

Re: Bosch Wipers

I just bought a set of 3 for the Prado from the same ebay seller that was selling the Bosch knockoffs. Should be here on Friday.
His current listing is http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... 108wt_1165
He disappeared for a while after the last batch. Maybe he ran out. His price is now $12/pair.

I had a terrible run during my Robe trip with the existing wipers. Driving into the night meant hitting a lot of bugs. Plus beach driving adds salt spray onto the windscreen which makes the wipers do a terrible job. Hopefully these will solve the problem for both front and rear wipers.

Re: Bosch Wipers

What is the difference between the standard and the bosch (or ones from ebay) and the benefits?

Re: Bosch Wipers

Where can you buy the Bosch aerotwin wipers from? Repco, Autobarn and Supercheap Auto don't stock them and I can't wait for an eBay delivery.

Re: Bosch Wipers

Received my ebay order early on friday morning for all 3 wipers for the Prado. All working good. The rear wiper is now sweeping normally. Now waiting for a bit of rain to give it a workout.

Re: Bosch Wipers

Got my Bosch wipers from Bursons this morning, $22 each. They'll get a work out over the next week so I hope they're as good as people say.

Re: Bosch Wipers

Bursons at Golod Coast quoted $32.50 each.
Did you get a special deal?

for me,

they wipe better
they make no noise
they work cold and hot
they've lasted well over 10 months when the standard ones used to give me a couple of months at best before they got noisy.

well worth a few extra $'s.....

I didn't ask for trade but they must have given it to me as the RRP on the receipt says $32

Re: Bosch Wipers

I sat in a mate's Camry over the weekend and noticed that he has the genuine Bosch wipers. The ebay (Don Shan) special looks exactly the same.

Re: Bosch Wipers

After a week of driving through the locust plague in NW VIC, I can say the Bosch wipers are great. The fronts work really well however the rear isn't the best, I don't think it gets enough down force to get it firm on the window.

i'll second that, mine lift a bit on the top of the stroke. it's out of my view from the rear vision mirror though so haven't looked at replacing it yet.
