my wipers are absolutely awful so i've been lookin for some new blades. went to halfords to get some and they had run out and another local one doesnt stock them.
between me and my friend (also in need of new wipers) we must have been to/contacted about 6 halfords, but no luck.

does anyone know where else may sell them seeing as they appear to be some special/sought after kind?

think i definitely need to get them sorted following recent "june" weather! :roll:

I'd try VW first! the aero wipers aren't usually stocked in Halfords.

Should be able to get these in any big car parts shop i would have thought, i know we sell the bosch aero wipers in our shop, they`re bloody expensive and bloody cra# IMO, try vag parts if you don`t get any luck or vw

Actually, I bought my genuine VW ones on ebay - then had a look in Halfords - they stocked them, ie Bosch ones - its Bosch blades that were original fit to my wife's Polo. The joke was that if I had looked carefully in Halfords I could have saved myself some time and a few pence and ended up with exactly the same parts!!!
