Wiper rubbers

[imtishal]

Few days ago one of my car's wiper rubber got demaged so decided to change it.went to market just to find that they are not available,shopkeepr said change only the rubber rest of things are gud.So i did that.But during yesterday's rain i observed that the wipers are nto working properly i mean there is sound coming when they move.Plus water is starting to stay on wind screen within wiper's cleaning range.

So was wondering where to get gud wipers or their rubber??

metro has 'BOSCH' wipers donno if they are orginal's or fake.Plus fitting them on my car could be an issue.plz anyone has the solution for this??

No one knows????

well .. to get good quality wiper rubber is very difficult ...
i guess u should try to get that from metro

once i also tried changing rubbers from different places but it wont last more than 4-6 months .. i end up installing new wipers from company .. my car was civic 98

[scorpion80]

i mean new original wipers from HONDA

[imtishal]

Thnx bichoo..
How much did they cost you??

[hash4u]

imti bhai,
its true u dont need to change the whole wipers.just new rubber strips will do.
buy any good quality strip and u can cut according to the blade size urself.

warna toilet kai wiper ka rubber laga lain

Bosch and NWB are good brands and work well. Find the full wiper arms of your car size. Changing only rubber always cause issues like you are facing.

I chose original Toyota rubbers when i was out to replace em.found at mehran autos, costed 1.2k for a pair....but compared with the originals, they perfectly matched.
were made in Malaysia or Thailand :S.

Bosch rubbers are cheaper and lower in quality to NWB.the softer it is the better.
depends on what car u have, honda has originals NWB coming, its advisable to buy new NWB blades costing 1.2k...including rubbers.
New corolla also has NWB stock...NWB are japanese made....

@Hash-ish bhai

Yar the shopkeeper naye sell karte hovaye zameen asman ko mila dia tha tareef mai,but the fact is,after some time rubber doesn't move smoothly on windscreen,jerks marta hai.
Toilet ka rubber is a gud idea but i use indian style one's orr uss mai rubber naam ki koi cheez nahi hoti..:),BTW i thought u were an accountant,yeh plumber ka kaam kab say shoro kar dia..

@Spectra

Thnx.

@Abdullah

[asimgujjar]

Bro buy orignal one from Honda dealership !!1

[abdullah1]

NWB for city:yousaf autos rwp, mehran autos saddar, kiyani autos gwalmadi.Replace the whole arms costing 1.2k...sukoon ho jaye ga...satisfaction is having the windscreen saved from scratches!

I am BOSCH authorized dealer in my city and can give you any information about bosch.Never replace rubbers,always replace the whole blade.BOSCH wipers are original in metro,but they will cost you almost 30% more than market.if you want the best quality of bosch,check BOSCH TWIN wiper blade.they are made in belgium.The bosch wipers available in market are orginal and the country of origin is korea.retail price of 18" wiper blades of bosch korea is Rs.450 per pair.The belgium made will cost you Rs.750 per set.

@abdullah

Thnx bro..will check'em out.

@raw1

thnx for the detailed reply about BOSCH.But the thing is,i checked BOSCH in metro their length didn't seemed like matching to my original one's.i mean the length of both arms is different in my case.driver's seat is longer then passenger seat and the one's at metro have same length.

Once my cars wiper got damaged bcuz of an idiot. i bought bosch ones and they remain just like new till i sold my car last month.

[rashed.iq]

tell me about your car make and model.i can give you the required information about wiper sizes.

Some three years ago, I changed the rubbers only and bought from Toyota capital for 800 rs. They are doing well so far. Actually original rubbers were also ok (I have still them), I just had weham that the right side wiper was leaving a thin trail of water. After the replacement I saw it had some dirt stuck which was causing the problem.

Always buy good quality wiper blades as money spent on them saves you a lot of other loss in terms of ruining of windscreen.

It's honda city exis 2002 model

[rashed.iq]

The driver side wiper of honda 2002 is 20 inches or 500mm long.The other wiper is 18 inches or 450mm long.you will not get both sizes in one pack.The retailer will give you one wiper each from two packs.I have checked wiper blades at metro fsd.They are the old version of bosch.The new version is total metal made,with BOSCH embossed in centre(near the hole.visible from outside the packing)The old version has Central portion metallic,while the sides are made of plastic.BOSCH is not embossed on older version.Cant say about metro in other cities

I replace mine Corolla complete Blades of NWB bought from Mehran Autos Saddar for Rs. 750/-

[killervtec]

Using BOSCH in all my cars since last three years.
Try getting original bosch...

They works fine as they are not rubber, they've got fine soft plastic and never put any scratchess on windscreen.....
