Hello,
So I went into GSF today and ordered some boch wipers.
I asked the salesperson why do many variant sizes come up for my 2017 (ND66 reg) and he advised that I get the wipers that are 30" and 32".
I have been on other wiper sites and they are suggesting 28" and 30"
Can anyone tell me the correct size and would it make any difference?
Thanks
Wiper Size

Re: Wiper Size
Halfords are pretty good for sizes apart from that the best way is via VIN.

Yes I ask the stupid questions, because normally it is that simple.

Re: Wiper Size
If they are covering the windscreen area properly why not just measure the ones on the car?

Re: Wiper Size
I haven't changed them since owning the car, so not sure if they are the correct size to start with from the previous owner.

Re: Wiper Size
Unfortunately we don't currently have access to the parts database. If your wipers are clearing the screen and not overhanging or missing 2inches of the screen then stick with the sizes you have.
