Need to get new front wipers and was thinking of replacing the genuine ones fitted with Bosch Aerotwin blades, any thoughts.

Dunno about those Bosch ones but when mine needed replacing I sure as hell didn't use Hy wipers, I went to my local car parts shop, who offer to fit little bits and bobs like this for a couple o quid and I had them fit a decent set, whose name I have no chance of recalling  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I have found Tridon a good brand. Not sure if they are available in the UK.

Ran across an article recently on wiper blade comparison:
:link: Best wiper blades: 2016 group test | Auto Express

Also did other comparisons, tyres, headlight bulbs etc

Might be of interest  :undecided:

Does anyone know which of the Aerotwin model numbers suit?  I went on the Bosch AU website and put in the car details and came back with heaps of Aerotwin models.  I had no idea what the differences were.

How's the performance of the Aerotwin wipers? Any streaking?

I use aerotwin for years, and they are the best.
you can use 2 methods:
1. measure your blades and buy the same length
2. go for this :link: Hyundai i30 Tourer 2007 - 2010 : Bosch A188S Aerotwin Flat Windscreen Wiper Blades.
its for i30 2010

I use it on my Citroen, on my i30, the store did not have the correct fit, so I had to put on the cheap ones, so no Bosch pn.
