Also got mine from Tesco - they were on offer at £3.61

- had no problems with them - just wish I had bought more of them at that price for the time when they need replacing.

I've also got some Tesco ones and wondered why the fit bit was at the bottom. I too hadn't seen any instructions on how to revere them, but will have a look at the packaging I retained tonight.
Can't say I've seen a massive improvement in performance, but they look okay I guess.

I used them for over a month before I found the instructions when fitting another one to a different car.

That's useful to know - I'll have a fiddle with them over the weekend. Unfortunately, I fitted them whilst in Belgium, so no longer have the packaging

I'll see if I can find it and scan it.

I ended up ordering a set from DBO's link, £10.94 = Total

Cheers Dave!
The Tesco ones in Trowbridge were £6 each for the aeros & £3.80 od?? for standard each.
They didn't have the size for a Micra... (both front Micra wipers are really shot!)

I ended up going to Chippenham for some standards @ Halfrauds... 15od quid!!

DBO sourced my aero wipers for the bongo for me... Even the MOT tester ( a former bongo owner) was mightily impressed with the effectiveness of the wipe!

I bought a set for my Focus too,i rate em 9 out of 10.

I've got the same ones as daveblueozzie, and think they're great. Very new ones I had on previously, disintegrated (well, one did), due to poor clipped (not riveted) construction - when I started wiping (with washers - but effect too slow!), on a dry screen well covered in Irish insects. Showed them to Ian at the Bash, and he was going to investigate the supply source.

I have a set of these on order
https://www.buytripledge.com/, They are amazing and have used them on the car at work. They also come with a LIFETIME warranty, which they will uphold as i have had one replced on the work car. A good product and definetly worth thinking about.

Mine came through today! Just fitted em took seconds, even though no instructions with em.
Just checked the site.. They lowered the price!
The passenger side seems to wipe better than the Bosch i removed which seemed to have little nicks along the blade when i looked close at em.
Got a drive to Switzerland Thursday, find out how they get on!!
