Coincidentally, washers was covered in a thread recently. The jets themselves are only a few quid:

Got all the bits to restore/upgrade the wipers....

Assembled with nifty washer squirters.
Just got to get the old arms off and plumb them in.
(Yes, I packed a pin to get the squirt in the right place).

Why would these be uprated.
Look the same as the ones on my car that are 20 years old.
I presume you mean the blades?

Instead of the loop of hard plastic hose with holes in it for the washer sprayer these have a little block clipped onto the wiper arm that the hose attaches to.

Did this on the Wedge and Tamora. Would be nice if the block dispensed 'fanned' water rather than a jet but much neater cleaner look than the rigid hose.

Ah ok. Thanks for confirming.

Hopefully they work for you, the set I bought from the same seller did not. The nearside especially touched the glass with the chunky snap on bit in the middle.

Could you share where you bought them as mine are getting tired

I replaced mine with a set of Bosch AR 16U. Straightforward fit, work well.

Those Bosch Aero retro-fit flat blades are extremely clumpy in the attachment area, partly of necessity as they're really designed for straight ended (not hooked) arms; I'm not a fan. I should imagine that, in an early Cerbera, they would reduce the driver's view of the road to virtually zero
Denso, Valeo, and Trico all offer much sleeker versions, but Bosch seem to have the hold on the (readily available) market place

Blade kit from eBay. £32 posted.
New wipers arms. Motoclan online. Both new arms £62 delivered.
Being fussy and snagging up mechanism nut and bolts, lining the arms up so they park properly, adjusting the squirters and tidying the hose with teeny cable ties, cleaning all threads and splines...
Total install time about 45 minutes.
Much better wash wipe and sweep not floppy and glides nicely.

I noticed the same so I removed the nearside cover and sanded it down. Kind of beveled it so now it clears the screen. Not rocket science and took less than 5 minutes.

I am happy with the Bosch ones, if anyone wants the ebay version I still have let me know.
