NEW LAND ROVER FREELANDER 1 FRONT ACCESSORY WINTER WIPER BLADES SET - VUB500900 | eBay

 

[Nodge68]

I've fitted a new set of these 21" 21" Front Aero Flat Wiper Blades Windscreen Window Jointless Beam Upgrade | eBay
to both my cars each year and never had a problem. They are cheap enough to change them before each Mot!!

Well i bought some genuine LR heavy duty winter blades VUB500900 but at 1st glance wasnt impressed simular to the Britpart & Trico HD blades.TBH unless you do alot of off-roading or severe cold weather i would say bosch is more suited :director:

I got a pair of Bosch aeroflats from ebay in the end . I'm looking forward to fitting them.

Wipey ones

Must be wiper blade month, just bought pair of Britax from local motor factor, as the rubbers had split on both of mine, for just under £12. Can't blame the snow or ice as we've not had any snow and always clear the screen of ice before using the car.

I only replaced mine due to the suspension joints freezing up on my as they wernt wiping the water away!!

Is there a general concensus to size then? I don't have the freelander in my possession yet but want to start ordering the essentials.

Don't know what size they are off the top of my head, but if you go on to halfrauds website and do a search it will give you the sizes on there.

In the past I have found guides to all be different. The halfords ones say mx5 mk3s are 21 and 15 inch when they are 17!

I've done a google search and it's coming back that they're 22"

You need a 22" (550mm) for the drivers side.

And a 21" (530mm) for the passenger side.

The best blades are the Bosch Aero type.

Not only are they smear free but they divert flies, crud and light drizzle up over the windscreen. And they last much longer.

Bosch do a special set of 2 called Aerotwin for LandRover, M-Benz, and Rover 75s which use this staggered size.

The code number you need is AeroTwin AR550S which comes with one of each size in the box.

Cost just under £19 on ebay -there are other suppliers - like 'Wiper Blades Ltd. of Kidderminster for example - very quick - next day delivery.

Nice one, I usually buy goodyear version of aero blades from cost co. They are on offer this month too!
