Wiper blades cost/ alternative

Featured Replies

Hi, I own a 2020 diesel Galaxy I've just had to replace the front wiper blades, the cost of the replacement Valeo Silencio AquaBlade Flat Wiper blades was £101 per set after £20 discount, I was just wondering does anyone know of a cheaper alternative?

Those are conventional blades for the old Galaxy.  The newer Galaxy uses blades with integrated washer spray holes (hence Aquablade branding), so much more expensive.

 

I did find plenty of sets on ebay for another member recently though.  Lowest I can find today are these at £40.

Or there are these from an authorised Valeo distributer if you'd rather pay a bit extra to ensure authenticity.

Ah, these said they fitted a 2020

Several members have used this outfit for blades:

Prices seem more in line with the OP, though.

I've had sets for other cars from there and they were pretty competive, fast service too.

I can only confirm my first flustration finding cost of original wipers :). lucky now exist already non genuine parts. I put on Bosch, at half price. it has same format, holes in the blade, fits nice.

Dead simple, as I am old we used to take the rubber blade out and insert new ones in this is what I did with my 2019 Galaxy.  4 packs Universal 28" Car Bus Silicone Frameless Windshield Wiper Blade Refills | eBay UK

Those refills don't have the washer holes along them, so not suitable for this vehicle.
