Wiper Blades
Bad rain day in Melbourne today and more on the way..makes me think of new wiper blades as still on the OEM's 3 yrs old.. Our E46 has the frameless one piece blades fitted by the dealer and these work great..
Any suggestion for the 1er.. |

You can get bosch aero blades but I would just get OEM ones. Give welch auto parts a try: 80 Johnston Street Collingwood VIC 3066 (03) 9415 8787 Their prices are better than imparts and sometimes have the genuine's in stock |

I don't feel as bad about the Supercheap prices now......
I think BMTech offered to replace them for $56 during my last service, can't remember if that was for 1 or 2 though.

Anyone got a source for parts and consumables in Sydney? I'm after one that doesn't require me to put my first born male up as a deposit?
I'd love to get stuff locally, and keep the $ here, as opposed to sending it to the US, UK or Europe just because of price. |

500mm for both driver and passenger side
In Melbourne, Harold is very good. Got some just last week. You can pick up from Greensborough and save postage http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BOSCH-AER...item2a210c5244

I bought 3 sets I think, I kept adding more until the shipping price didn't go up on my order

I don't know if it was a bug or what on ECS.
but, I bought some injectors, 2 oil filter kits and then added a cabin filter to see how much I'd get screwed for postage as it's a pretty big item. I added it and the postage jumped up about $50 or so and I freaked. Then I added some windscreen wiper kits and the postage dropped by about $35. So I added 2 more sets along with 2 more oil filter kits without it going up again.
