The wipers on my E300 have the screen washer thingy incorporated in them, I cant seem to find them to order replacements as they aren't clearing the screen properly. Thanks

I have a horrible feeling these are dealer only Missy, magic vision wipers are not cheep either at ~£50 a pair

Dealer only. Not enough on the road for 3rd parties to start making them.
Hideous wipers that make owners pay way over the odds for a service item.

Just curious, what do you find hideous about them?

for a set up wipers, that should be replaced annually - the price.

Years ago when I had my W124 i had a huge rubber blade strip and just used to cut and replace the rubber.
Think i still got it in my garage:

They are just extortionate from dealers.

There's tons of brands that makes a 600mm blade. Bosch SVF etc etc. No problem on the aftermarket. Nothing special about them.

Wow. I thought the washers were incorporated into the washer arms and not the blades that are attached. I don't own a model with that on. That's an extra add-on that they can continually make money on.

Update...

I messaged Mercedes Newcastle and they quoted £115. I took Mel for a pre MOT check at my trusty indy @Uncle Benz and managed to get them a bit cheaper . He fitted them and then got her MOT'd so a very good result all round.

Mainly Mercedes
Interestingly the blades are also heated. When we lifted Sarah’s off on a chilly Saturday morning the drivers one was quite warm, but the passenger side stone cold. The heating element had failed in that blade, so worthwhile to replace them, definitely. I look after club members with parts at trade price where I can. What goes around, and all that ;)
