[vn4250]

couldn't be bothered so i ended up getting them from autobahn in sunshine vic. the drivers side wipers was $31.

yeah i was desperate after it started raining properly for the 1st time in 10years so bought drivers side one for $35 from autopro... that was after arguing with the salesman that a standard set of wipers for all cars wouldnt fit..

they are there own unit in them selves.. im pretty sure u cant fit just blades into them the whole bit needs replacing

good tip! thanks mate

Are the VE wipers double sided or something ? they look a bit different from inside the cabin..

 

[TinSnips]

They're just frameless. Holden has gone all Euro with them (they're bosch blades, I think). Frameless blades to wipe better and last longer though but because you have to replace the whole head rather than just the insert, they're pricey.
