Wiper Blade Replacements for D3/RRS

[sniegy]

Hi Guys,
For those that are lucky enough to have one of the best 4wd's around
I have a part number for you.
"BOSCH" "BBA550" are an EXACT replacement for the factory blade.
Available from Burson's, Repco & other Bosch stockists.
Should take about 6 seconds to replace each blade

Lucky mucks..

Take care

Do these make the same awful shuddering sound as the originals?

Hopefully not!

No but neither do the new part number OEMs. Make sure your dealer fits the new ones.

Are these Bosch blades for around $23 each ($46 pair) as good or better than the Land Rover OEM blades that my dealer has quoted me $115 a pair?

Discomaniac,
I would say that they are of an equal design & performance. Maybe of slightly better quality, but they work & work well. In the end it is your money.

Had mine in a week ago for a service and pads...........LR rang to say the wipers need replacing (I had replaced the originals with Aunger.....waste of time), so I said yeah...what's another $120 bucks?

they forgot to fit them

I have just fitted a set of these Bosch BBA550's. The old ones were breaking up over where the rain sensor was, so were staying on for far longer than they needed to after the rain stopped when set to Auto. The new ones were easy to fit and are a perfect replacement. Silent operation so far. Can highly recommend them.

couldn't initialy find the Bosch number on FAQ it wasn't where the index said it was - it must have fallen down one topic.
tried to get the Bosch unit ($31.00 each) Repco and Supercheap don't carry them but can get them in. Repco suggested either a TRICO alternative for $38.00 each or the new spectacular Repco Tri-co neo form head unit EDIT part number RFB22 - same part for both sides of front. Uses the large J hook already fitted to the wiper blade head and was on the car in 2 minutes
Price with RACV club discount just $26.98 each inc tax

Two WB5-22 blades from Wiper Blades UK arrived in Bendigo in 5 days for $28.60. Two minutes to fit. Ahhhh..the silence.
