I have picked up some Bosch 16" wiper blades from Halfords but the actual mechanism to join the arm to the wiper blade is totally different. Any clues anyone.

Surely they are nothing rare or unusual, there is usually that little plastic bag with 2 or 3 different link pieces to universally adapt them to fit.
Or swop the fittings from the old blade to the new ones?
Interested as mine requires new blades.

Anyone tried the Bosch Aerotwin blades on their S ? I'd be interested to hear how they got on / see a photo of them fitted....

I just got some from ap motor store online - 16" aero flat . Trick is to get the ones designed for a "hook" type arm. The reason I went for these is that they have a nice flat cover for the washer jet to stick to. Very reasonable at £8.45 for the pair delivered.
