Australia 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Auto Java BlackDiscovery 3

I want to stop the wipers at the top of their sweep, not down in the parked position. Is there anyway to do this?

I was worried about this, also couldnt find a Valeo supplier locally, so I bought some Bosch 550mm "Twin" blades for CHF35.- Silence is golden. Doesnt quite make the screen curvature at the extremes, but wipes well. Also I need to check the mountings. Will post if there's a problem.

Thanks for the info - I will probably try what is available locally - no one seems to stock valeo here Smile

Bosch dont fit well - came loose

Dont fit the Bosch ones, they can come loose ! Better solution is Nigrin Evolution 550 from OBI or Conrad

I' replaced the Bosches with Nigrins at CHF30.00 (£14) each. Now waiting for rain Shocked
