The wipers have worn and in need for replacement. Have been to many accessories outlets but could not find any Bosch Aerotwin with sizes of our extra long wipers. Do you know where to source them? Or any recommended alternatives?


From my 405 and 806 days, now 406, i am using Duraedge wiper....they provide warranty for their wipers......just try and search for Duraedge, their HQ is in Taman Mayan,PJ just along the LDP.
405 - designed by pininfarina, even peugeot doesn't make cars like it anymore!<BR><P><A href="http://www.autoworld...lfa&CID=">zulfa 405 gallery</A></P>

Quite true for 206, 306, 405/6 (using conventional "hook" fitments) smile_thumbup.gif
unfortunately not suitable for *08th & *008th generation Pugs(pls correct me if I'm wrong).

I just bought the same for rm138 at Midvalley, yet to try..


I suggest that you do not use that. I bought a pair. If you operate the wiper on a perfectly clean and dry windscreen (just after car wash), the wipers will stick on the windscreen and drag so slowly that the motor might burn. These 100% silicon wipers are simply too strong + sticky and might easily scratch your windscreen.

So far the only silicon wipers I trust are those of PIAA. They mix silicon with carbon, thus it looks and feels almost like ordinary rubber. Gentle on your windscreen yet able to give you that "Rain-X" feeling.

I second that. However does PIAA have silicone blades of the sizes for 308?

Are we able to switch the wiper to accommodate wider coverage of the right side of the windscreen? I came across this discussion before but not sure where... hence, re-inquire to sifoos here biggrin.gif

Thanks!

I actually use the silicone wipers bought from a kiosk at Mid-valley. I believe it's Sumo wipers or something like that.
Been using them for almost 3 years and still going strong. I would recommend it

I second that bro. Also gives the rain-x feeling.
