Hi

I’ve got to replace the windscreen wiper blades on our RHD 9 series Fiat Ducato, but I’m not sure which would be the best replacements. Any suggestions please?

Thanks.
 
I always use Bosch Aero blades. I found cheap ones tend to go hard in no time so false economy.
I 100% agree with this. I was replacing mine every 2 years.

I bought the Bosch Aero blades due to recommendations on here back on the 2nd May 2020 and they are still in perfect working order. I love them.

Bosch are the OEM suppliers for most vehicles these days and are certainly very good. Buying outside of the dealer is obviously much cheaper, and they are the same blades.

I measure the length of the blade and then put vehicle registration into Eurocarparts search engine and then look for the Bosch aero blade that they recommend

That strange I’ve just ordered a pair just under £20 , bit dear maybe but the ones I have on my fait 2019 never seen before.
They have a little square button that you push to release old ones ,
Never looked before and thought they would be hard to find but was quite easy to find.
Are they all like this type ?? 26”&22”

I always remove my wiper blades between trips.
Stops them getting aged by sunlight, or sticking to the screen and tearing if used after being left stationary for a long time.
Just make sure to put foam or similar under the arms so they don’t damage the windscreen.

That’s what I do but not the foam. Just put the wipers in front of pedals, or on drivers seat.

Not sure if we are at cross-purposes here?
I was suggesting foam under the ends of the metal wiper arms after the wiper blades have been removed. Just in case the wipers are inadvertently operated and the arms leave two arc-shaped scratches on the windscreen.

I use Bosch Aero Blades on my car and motorhome. They work well and last.

No. I understood you 👍🏻

I just don’t bother with the foam, and rely on not putting on the wipers as they are by the drivers seat/area, where I would operate the wipers from.
