Can you let us know what you think of them???

Will do Craig. I'm expecting them on Monday next week so will give a review once I've installed them.

With nearly three and a half years of good exchange rates for
US & GBP , it's no suprise that sooooo many people are buying
everything they can get shipped from overseas. Importers here
are utter gougers , and the retailers want RRP BS whenever
you see them. It is interesting to note that the US is putting
pressure on US Dealers to stop posting overseas . I contacted
my usual US Kubota Dealer a few weeks back and he informed me
that Kubota US Corp. has embargoed any stock going overseas.
This is because we're not tolerating local gouging , and grey-importers
are selling Kubota for US price plus gst plus 16% .Now I use
a 'Stateside intermediate . To hell with these SOAB's and
their ripoff cartels......

Great thread folks. What are people doing for the rear wiper?

Cheers

Bob

Any old rubbish will do there ; Wiper Blades Ltd. | Suppliers of Quality Windscreen Wiper Blades.

Just get something cheap over here . The soil plays hell with the
blade , which is only given the occasional flick anyway .........

Thanks Neil

Finally got to fit the new Bosch Aero Twin blades this morning.

First impressions: Much better aesthetic profile than the OEM blades and look much more modern with the fancy clip system that Bosch use.

Have tested the blades at 60km/h and somewhere a bit north of the legal 110km/h and can say that there were no signs of the blades lifting or shuddering at speed. Very smooth and very quiet.

Also very easy to install, so after 1 days use I would recommend these in preference to the OEM blades.

Thanks for that guys. I just bought a pair of the Bosch wipers.

Cheers,
