Wiper Blades - musher - 08-03-2013 12:37pm
Hi, has anyone had the need to change their wiper blades yet. My car is now just over 12 months old and the blades are starting to leave a smear across the windscreen and making a bit of a noise now.
Those of you who have changed them, do you recommended original ones from LR or a different brand and if the originals, how much do the cost???

I paid just over £40 for the pair from the dealer. Bosch ones from Halfords will be £5 or so less and I think they would need the fittings to be added if I remember correctly (included in the box). Not a huge amount in it really except Halfords didn't have both front and rear in stock when I looked so the dealer got the the business. Don't recall if you are able to get them as a pair from Halfords. Would then perhaps expect them to be cheaper still.

Chuckie thanks for that I'll give mine a ring to find out how much they'll charge. Just noticed that I had my car delivered on the same day as yours maybe they both came down the production line together??

Mine on my Dynamic were replaced after 2 or 3 weeks due to smearing.
