Just as cheap to buy the whole thing isnt it? None of the big names do the rubbers alone, and cheap wipers are in £1 shops or near as makes no
difference in places like asda/wilkinson!
Personally Id spend the money on retrofit aerotwins (bosch branded) as they are excellent.

Not worth the effort except for some rear blades which are integral with the wiper arm as you will find a genuine Bosch blades on ebay for less
than £12 a pair including P&P
Look for eBay Seller " Redline" always a good price for this sort of stuff.

used to be able to get them in halfords, dad had a ford aerostar van, and you couldn't get replacement wipers at the time (though, i'm
sure there were ones that fitted now i know more about this kind of stuff) but yes, you could get refills in halfords

Indeed nothing wrong with the Halford's refills... I remember a triple-bladed refill I used to get in the late 90's... no idea where they
are anymore
Iirc halfords ones were about £12 for a pair of 21/22 inch ones (don't think they do bigger)

This makes me pig sick, when I worked for Bosch they were £3 a pair in the staff shop delivered
