Don’t see how adapter 2 would work unless you’ve done it. I’d say adapter 3 would be needed plus the clip you take off. In that case A402H is a better option. Mines perfect and wipes better than the OEM ever did so I’m happy ;)

Now that's very silly Jon :lol: , probably only on the wiper motor which now has to work harder due to the extra friction and weight from the longer blade.

Nope :D

And if I did have a motor problem I’d put the old one back on ;)

The picture doesn’t show it but the A402H is pretty much the same size as the factory one but the A381 (official one) is 20mm shorter. Compared to the Bosch though the OEM is really crap quality which is why it’s split after just 1500 miles!!

Bosch will be going on the front too when they go ;)

I used the A402H which has been perfect and a step up from the OEM, but I didn't like having to re-use the original adapter so I contacted Bosch and they advised the AM40H complete with adapters which I will try next time.

…on the front too!!!!
Catastrophic warranty issue not to mention unauthorised modifications. Uninsurable.

I have binned it Neil, because when I remonstrated with the OPC, they said that their replacements were Bosch and I couldn't see any difference between theirs and the one I bought - I examined both carefully with my extended warranty in mind!

That’s all wind up material 😁 you’ve read. There’s no issue fitting Bosch blades 😉

Thanks, noticed my rear is a bit crap - so going to order one up.

What ones do we need for the front out of interest?
