Im now on my third set of these retro fit flat wiper blades and i still cant find a make that is any good, am i p***ing in the wind or is there a decent manufacturer of these? Or shall i go back to standard blades if so what make shall i get?
 
Not had any problems with my Trico Innovision. Been on for a good 6 months.
Cost me about £15 the pair on Ebay

Using then on the X5 too front and rear
 
Pls excuse my ignorance, but I've heard of these flat wiper blades but that are they? What makes them different from the std ones?

This is just good looking ;)
 
I find the OEM wipers on my Z4MC to be rubbish (leave streaks etc)... I'm guessing many others are finding the same, hence the switch to other brands..?
 
I cant find a uk supply of these bosch icon blades!
Everything else ive tried judders or misses patches!
 
I have a set of the Trico Neoforms on my Z4.

They are great - no complaints here.

Would of got Bosch but I can't fine them here in the UK - but the Tricos are fine.
 
I purchased a set of Bosch Icons in the US on a recent trip. Got home and found they had no adaptor arms. Returned them to the US with a colleague for a full refund (no questions asked).

Replaced by locally sourced from Ebay Trico Innovision as I too seemed unable to locate a reasonable supplier of the Icons in the UK. These work really well and almost clear the NS, highly curved area of the screen...
 
What sizes are the blades on the Z4? Do you need adapaters to fit the flat blades or are they a straight swap?
 
From PIAA

21" (with a spoiler if you want the bmw one does) for the drivers side

20" curved for the passenger side. I got the straight one and it sit off at the nearside edge of the screen.
