Similar money to those on your link. They are definately better than the set I took off. Ended up being a pain to swap but with some WD40 they came off ok

2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 S Manual Cairns BlueDiscovery 3

John, after reading on here from a number of different posters I bought a pair of these: LINKY and I was very surprised to learn they are incredibly good value for very little money. Yes, I too was unsure but figured, for less than a fiver, I'd give them a try............and they are simply superb. I've had them on for a couple of months and they still seem fine. TBH, if they only last 6 months they'd still be excellent value.

Give them a try, you'll be well impressed. Wink

Think I got the idea from here:http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic84486.html?highlight=wipers

I'm not scared, I'm outta here.

I bought the Bosch AR22U's from Eurocarparts yesterday as I have always found the Bosch gear to be pretty good.
£12.60 before the 31% discount and free delivery, ie £8.82 each which I think is a bargain.

The latest discount code gives 31% just type: MIDMONTH31

If they wont give the discount when you walk into the store, then you can always order online with the discount cde, but do a 'collect from store' option instead of delivery, so it would seem daft if they dont offer the same discount to walk in customers.
I do know other local stores (ie not Eurocarparts) that have that sort of stupid policy though, in which case you can just order from your IPhone standing right in front of them.
It makes no sense to me to essentially rip off your local customers.... Neutral
