Wiper blades for 2005 320D

MauriceRKK · 16-09-2013 9:05pm #1

Hi there, I feel like a twat asking this but I need to know where I can get wiper blades that fit my car. I bought a bosch set in Halfords which resulted in removing the cap on the wiper arms permanently. I'd rather not do that so I returned them. It seems that there are a lot of sets out there that require the caps removed. What wipers are the closest to OEM that you can get?

You mean the plastic bit and the end of the arm that you connected the blade to?
I think micksgarage has the right blades, if you type your reg number in there and have a look? They usually have pics.

What cap is this? What am I missing?

I have an 03 320D and my wiper arms just end in a U-shaped hooky bit that the clip on the wipers attach into.
Have used both the Bosch and Halfords own brand ones specific to the vehicle without problems.
AFAIK are Bosch not the original wipers on these anyway?

I think what OP means is in this video

It's like a "snap on" version rather than the hook.

Bought these last week for my e60 - snap on fitment, not too sure if they're the same size you need but I'm sure you'll be able to find the size you need on there though.
