Has anybody fitted flat wiper blades to their Cayman such as Bosch or Valeo and what was the results?

Thanks

Haven't tried those but do have a look at piaa wipers. I was recommended them by Richard Hamilton and they are superb. Silicon wipers that cause the rain to bead off. Take a look at YouTube.

Yes I bought / fitted Valeo flat blades. Worked perfectly, much better than standard ones, I've had them for about a year now with no complaints.

Reading the write-up on the PIAA ones, is it not a similar effect to just smearing a silicone repellent over the screen after each time you wash the car?

Now that you can understand, Sorry sir, the wipers put silicone on the screen which made them go at 50 wipes a minute instead of 45, that put extra stress on the motor which caused it to burn out, you should have paid four times as much to have the genuine ones supplied and fitted by us biggrin

Mine has 1 flat(edit: just checked, drivers side), and one spec curved.

No difference really, the flat one is slightly better if I had to call it.
