Hey all,
Noticed the other day that my wiper blades are almost due for replacement, so I dropped in to the local auto spares and learned that it would cost me $22 JUST for the right hand side refill (the right hand side being longer and therefore a different refill and not interchangeable), and that wasn't even the Ford price. Anyone else with an FG replaced wiper blades recently? $22 bucks seems a bit steep IMO just for one side.... Only had the car for 6 months, would probably expect a bit more life outa them than that :s Cheers, Josh

But I bought the flex ones or whatever they are...do a great job compared to the old school ones which have the refill option.

it's what happens when you own a new car.
AH Astras the genuine wiper blades cost you $90 for both sides
