			Silblades
		
 
			
				
					Hi all,
 
 The worst part on the Defender are the toy windscreen wipers. But if that is my only complaint I can easilly live with that to own one! 
 
 I need new wiper blades and have been doing some research and come up with 2 ways to go:
 
 1. Silblades
 2. Landrover Original or some from Supercheap, Repco etc and get some Rainx
 
 Does anyone know if Silblades are available for purchase in Australia?
 
 I can get them from USA direct from the manufacturer or from Mudstuff in the UK. Anywhere else?
 
 Pricing delivered to my house is $62.55 AUD from Mudstuff. From Silblades direct, the shipping is a killer and would be twice this price!
 
 Anyone got Silblades on their Defender? Anyone tried Rainx?

					rainX works well, but needs re-applying every year or so.....
 
 what is your problem with the existing wipers? short life span?

					Shudders across the windscreen and leaves some water lines behind.
