Hi Brad, we tried to get you on your mobile a little while ago but understandably it's a bit late on the East Coast at this time of night. If you could email me at sales@lsdautomotive.com I can organise payment and invoicing for you. The defender blades are flying out the door and we've only a few left, more will be sent from the US shortly
Hope to hear from you soon :)

Hello everyone,
It's great to see so much interest in this offer! We have completely sold out of Defender/County blades and Discovery 2 as well. There are only a few sets of the Disco 3/4 and RRS left on hand and the same for D1s! Brilliant to see they've been so well received.
We are now putting interested customers on our waiting list where blades have sold out. We will be having more sent from the manufacturer as soon as practicable.We will honour the introductory price for all orders placed before Sept 11 so please don't think you've missed out. Make sure you email us to secure pricing :)
Also, we've had one member mention them to the resident SWMBO and secured blades for Father's Day - not a bad idea!!

May I clarify please - are these just the wiper baldes or do they include the wiper arms as well ?

And can I ask if anybody on the forum has had these yet, and their experience?
Thanks!

Set fitted - Thanks Sarah...
Seem to function just like the old ones, but slightly smoother across the glass.
Biggest test(s) will be:
- Longevity
- How well they tolerate mud, grit and grime on the glass (cutting the blades)
But the frames appear solid and quality both fit and finish.
And Vlad - Yes, the normal style blades include arms... The flex style are an all in one body/blade

I fitted my set today and couldn't be happier.
It took less time to fit the Silblade unit than to replace a normal wiper rubber.
First time I tried them was with the washers and the jets didn't have enough volume to get close to challenging them, so I turned the hose on the windscreen and let rip with the wipers for a minute or so.
Once the blades had coated the screen with their silicone coating they worked an absolute treat.
The package comes complete with everything you need to fit the blades and the instructions are clear and easy to read.
I can't wait for the snow and ice to hit on Monday to see how they perform in Alpine conditions.
And yes Vlad, they come as a complete unit with the body and blade.
If you need to you can replace the rubber/silicone blade as per normal down the track, but with a 5 year warranty we'll have to see.

Thanks so much for the feedback Hymie and Tombie! My set are great thus far too - though my last blades were in dire need of replacing. It's a little odd not to hear them screech across my windscreen to be honest! I was actually happy to see it raining over the weekend so I could test them out :p
Vlad, just to confirm what the others have said - yes they have the frame as well as the silicone blade. This image shows you what you get:

Hi Inc - I've had a quick look into it but as we only purchased Land Rover blades in our initial order I don't have the right ones for you at present. According to my research a Caddy will have two different size blades, a 24" and an 18" (60cm and 45cm). If you want them let me know asap as we'll be on the phone with the supplier in 3 hours time, otherwise I can add it to the next order. The 24" is outside the standard range so I need to make sure they have them available for immediate shipping. The 18 is no problem as it suits a Landy as well so we'll have them back in stock shortly
Or you could just get the 18 and do a side by side comparison test in the wet weather :p
For any vehicles that are also sold in the US feel free to plug your vehicle into this search engine, unfortunately it doesn't take Holdens/Fords and the like
Wiper Search (http://www.silblade.com/Wiper-Search_ep_42.html)
(It didn't appear to have the caddy listed though)

I just wanted to thank all of those who have been patiently waiting for me to process orders. All being well I should be able to post out this week. I do apologise for the wait incurred.
Also, please rest assured that the warranty is still valid whether or not LSD Automotive continues to operate or not. It may be a case of being referred directly to the company in the US but they have assured me that they will help directly if need be

An apology to anyone in WA waiting for delivery. I have just realised I've completely overlooked you. If I have an address for you your blades are coming out today via Auspost....so, by Christmas ;) If not I've sent you an email double checking details. So very sorry, as you'll know, Simon always did the WA forum member deliveries, I managed the rest of the country. I couldn't figure out why I had all these extra sets!
