    Landrover windscreen wiper blades

    Has anyone living in the North experienced problems with wiper blades deteriorating and falling apart?.

    I have had to replace mine twice since acquiring the vehicle in November 04.

    Just wondered


    regards

    I find that windscreen wiper blades dont last that long, i usually replace mine every 6 - 12 months, the sun kills them

    silicon ones are probably cheaper than genuine too.

    I have used the silican ones for ages, best thing ever.

    You can like most other things buy the cheep ones or pay a bit more for the ones next to them.

    Pay more, you will pay less in the long run.

    I made mine fit, cut down a long one and had enough to use in the rear wiper as well.
