Chrome/silver wipers/refills

[Chazchuzzlewitt]

Anyone have a good source for chrome/silver coloured wipers for older Mercs? Or can you get re-fills still easily? I have a nice set of Bosch wipers for my 116 but the blades are buggered now.

again, don't laugh

but I bought a shed-load at Lidl to fit my 107. They even have a spoiler on them, and at £1.49 a pair or whatever they were, they can give up the ghost every month as afar as I'm concerned. Probably just a bit easier than changing the rubber inserts. I kept the original ones, and can refill them with the rubbers from the new ones, or Bosch originals if I come over all purist-like.

i'm not laughing, any way to save money is fine by me...

I'll have to remember to pop in there.

they only do them about twice a year

so you have to keep an eye out on their website for coming offers. I ran my beemer on their engine oil for its last 100,000 miles. Nuff said for £2.99 for 5 litres.
