    Anyone every have an issue with the driver side of these not fitting?

    I got the right ones for my toyota corolla,but no matter what I do the metal hook at the end of the wiper arm hits off the housing, if i push in in under the housing the blade doesnt make contact with the windscreen or the whole thing is lose.

    I looked at all the other sizes and none of them would fit and took out a pair and the housing is the same.Herself has a nissan almera and they fit no problem!

    Tried that but I couldn't take the original housing off the other slim ones I have.

    Keep fiddling with them, they will fit using one housing or the other.
    Personally myself I'd rather change a clutch than a set of wiper blades, so hard to figure out :)

    They where a piece of piss putting em on herselfs car when i got the housing figured out

    Mine wont go no matter what , think the housing is just to small

    Seems Lidl is the same , tried em this morning and the housing wont go all the way in.

    Onto Tesco or then Dealz etc, I have good or good enough ones on at the minute and they arent much better than JML or Lidl ones I had on my other car.

    Can anyone confirm the blade size for a toyota corolla terra 2002, im sure its a 18 and a 22 , thanks!

    I had no issues with putting them on my MX5, just make sure before you take them off that you know which way they're going on, i.e. line them up first before removing the old one.

    The clips were the exact size and they fit very well.

    Will be interested to see how long they last.

    ive fitted the aldi ones on herselfs almera no problem and also fitted similar on the punto i had hassle free , also have taken then on and off mine

    They easily push and click in or push in the plastic bit and slide em down

    Wish i was doing something wrong , they just wont fit

    Hopefull they do last for your , they are a bargain
