    Default windscreen wipers

    does anyone know where i can purchase a set of one piece windscreen wipers

    they are called flexi wipers or something

    i can find them on ebay for most japanes and overseas model cars but not for holden

    thinking if i just match up the lengths of the windscreen wipers to one of an overseas model might work

    EDIT: but we are RHD and most cars are LHD, could be a problem

    thanks for that

    what is the "wipe" like?
    no streaks, would you say that they are a good buy?

    piece of piss to fit mate like a 2 minute job each side.
    i have to go with everyone here.. i got them on my VY and work beautifully. even if you have a couple of drops of water on your windscreen and tap the wiper button, it just comes off clean.
    I also had em on my old VS... heaps better than chucking some rubber on em.

    I picked up several sets from Supercheap for $16 a piece!!
    The sticker on the shelf was $29.99 each,but when I paid for them they were only $16 each,so I grabbed 4 more .
    These blades are great and well worth buying.I love the way they don't shudder,even on a dry screen.
