    Default Wiper blades Bosch inserts

    hi guys
    i have had my mps 3 for two months now and i want to replace the wipers there bosch wipers but i cant seem to find the wiper blades at all for autobarn or supercheap? Are these the OEM wipers?

    i had a look at the wipers and they dont have any clips to lock it in, it just slots in.
    Do i have to go to mazda to get these?

    Thanks

    Do they have a metal frame, or does it just slot on in one spot at the middle of the blade? If that is the case, it might be a Bosch AeroTwin wiper blade, I have a similar setup but from Tridon, which I bought at Super Cheap.

    Surely the multifit blade inserts would fit?

    No I heard Super Cheap don't sell AeroTwins anymore, however they do sell the Tridon version which I have been using for the last couple of months. They have been pretty good, hard to compare with regular inserts except they have lasted well enough, maybe because they are made of natural rubber.

    Autopro stock the Bosch aerotwin and the other type of blades (like I think you have). If they dont have your siez in stock they will order them in for you too.

    ok well i have been everywhere to autobarn, autopro , supercheap and they dont have bosch wipers at all not even aero twin...
    they only stock their own brands....

    i saw on ebay a set going for 70 bucks.... seriously that is too expensive.

    Thats about the right pricing for aerotwins, I think I paid about $35 per blade, I recently swapped to the Tridon ones supercheap are carrying, and I would say they are about as good as the bosch ones, it is also worth googling how to replace the rubbers in the aerotwin style blades if you get them, saves forking out $70 every 6 months.

    If you want some I can get them for you and send them, our local autopro does stock them
