#1: Wiper size? Author: acotton21, Location: NottsPosted: Fri Jun 08, 2012 6:19 am ---- I've been looking round but instead of going to measure my wipers as I don't have my car at the min I'm not sure what size they are, if any help mines a 51 plate, I've seen people saying diff sizes but I'm not sure.
Thanks

Wrong yourself, Swordfish being in the Neatherlands will have a LEFT HAND DRIVE 206 & the front wiper linkage is totally different to a right hand drive 206.

I could swear it was basically the same, just the other way around?
But yeah, I knew that.

Left hand drive 206s dont have the large crank in the wiper linkage for a start.

totally different
#15: Re: Wiper size? Author: crocdino, Location: LeedsPosted: Sun Jun 17, 2012 5:27 am ---- I've got 2x 22" Bosch at the moment.
Going tomorrow as they've gone brittle after 2 years, I don't know if that's good or bad! Will be replaced with Valeo XTRM. Best I've used yet.

Thats because the earlier 206's have different size wiper arms to later 206's, thats why the blades need to be different.
#19: Re: Wiper size? Author: Frenchy, Location: GloucesterPosted: Wed Jun 20, 2012 11:14 am ---- Just changed mine, Halfords recommended Bosch 22" on both sides with a spoiler, they work very well.
#20: Re: Wiper size? Author: crocdino, Location: LeedsPosted: Thu Jun 21, 2012 12:06 pm ---- Update. Put the Valeo XTRM in. 10/10 excellent.
