Just make doubly sure you're ordering the correct size for your car. Nothing like actually measuring what you've got as trying to get the correct size from reference manuals is very hit and miss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frowma Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Bosch Aerotwins are the business. Did the MK2 have flat blades from the factory? If so then you'll just need to make sure as Waggy says to get the right size, you can buy twin packs. If they didn't and had the old school type blades you will need to get the retrofit type, my old 2006 Punto needed retrofits and they worked great. I believe the correct Bosch part for the MK2 Focus is A978S, which are 26" and 17" It does say in that eBay link.... This item doesn't fit Ford Focus 1.6 TDCi 2008 MK II 2004-2012 Hatchback. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says they're for a MK2, then at the bottom say they won't fit and also shows they're 26" and 16" which are the wrong size. Do a search for Bosch Aerotwin A978S instead. One thing......do the Focus MK2s have different sized blades depending on the model. A pretty stupid question but you just never know!
