Prepare Prius Gen 2 for MOT

Recommended Posts

I have a 2007 Prius Gen 2, 95K mileage. Got the car back from main dealer after a service, was told the wiper blade and head lamp may be a problem for MOT next month. 

Can anyone suggest the best (durable) wiper blade for my Prius? Bosch Aerotwin seems to be the best on several review website,  but does it work well with Prius gen2?

Also, is it worth buying a head lamp cover cleaner or restorer? Toyota said it will be several hundreds to have both side of head lamp units replaced. If so, can anyone recommend which brand to buy?

Thanks.

Restoring headlights can be done using a variety of methods from toothpaste to restorer kits, and good results can be achieved. Examples of restorer kits - https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=Headlight+restorer+kit&ref=nb_sb_noss_2

Certainly worth trying rather than buying new units.

The Gen 2 Toyota brand Wiper Blades are decent, SWMBO changed hers 2 years ago (for more Toyota ones) and they were the original ones at 11 years old. The headlamp restoring kits make a good job but don't last forever, I did SWMBO's two years ago and they're just beginning to go cloudy again. I would leave restoring the headlamps until nearer the next MOT to get the most out of them.
