[LiamGTR]

Wipre blade refills? Am I missing something? What do you fill a wiper blade with ?

S2GTR is looking into it :

The OEM parts are bonkers expensive, and are as fitted to the car now . . . The silicon PIAA blades are brilliant .. that's what I'm waiting for.

the OEM wiper refils are $6.87 each in the US! shipping is a killer but if you bulk order for 30 it would be cheap as they are light

I know the PIAA are good. Im using water repellent on the screen to keep the OEM ones OK

the part no. for the Refill blades
B8895-JF00B and B8895-JF01B

Who fancies ringing their dealer for UK price?

I know this might be a *really* stupid question, but are the blades handed? As in left right? I cant imagine they are as no global manufacturer is going to do that with something like a wiper these days.

yes I know the drivers side one is different from the passenger but do they also transfer across the car across the pond as it were?

If the above is OK I would be in for a group buy Robbie.

 

[charles charlie]

I see no reason why not.

 

[tomgtr]

I'm having 8 wheels and 8 tires + Stillen lip spoiler transported for free to The Netherlands. Within reason I can include some more stuff to Europe...

 

[Robbie J]

I have a set of blades already, my JDM came with a spare set!

I will post a picture up

 

[Robbie J]

they are not handed by looking at them. anybody checked the price yet?

Those prices are for the wiper assembly, not the blade itself.

You can change the rubber blade without having to replace the whole assembly.

My passenger side assembly became all bent up and distorted so I had to change the whole thing, but I still have the spare blade for later!

 

[Hope4Sun]

Ah that would explain it , though i did ask him if that was just for the rubber bit and he said "yes", I knew should have called Middlehurst at least they know what a GTR is lol

 

[charles charlie]

The wiper is a 2 part system.

Big bendy rubber thing with the wiper blade inserted into that.

Sorry for using confusing technical speak....

 

[Hope4Sun]

Lol i knew what ya ment mate ( i did mean the blade by my rubber bit), i guess the tech did'nt know what i ment though :chairshot

 

[Robbie J]

so that's for the complete blade and wiper holder, Nissan are ripping us of if we ask for this part no.s I wonder if they will sell us the replacement blades themselves

I will buy some bosch replacement blades as they look fairly stock
