Wiper Blade Replacements

[TazUddin]

Hi all. 

 

Hope all are well and safe. Just a quick question. I need to replace my Wiper Blades for the front. Was wondering if I should change the actual blades themselves or change the whole housing aswel? I actually like the housing as it comes from manufacturers. Could anyone shed any light. Its a Toyota corolla hybrid 2019.

Tbh they are cheap enough from Toyota for complete blades

You can do either way, just the rubber or full set. If the current one are really bad you can give them a wipe with anti septic wet wipes or alcohol wipes and they will be good again while waiting for your new one to arrive. 👍

How much are they?

[Malcster]

Ball park figure about 17- 20 Inc vat for the pair 

I'll double check tomorrow when I'm back at work

Another one for the wipers

As far as I'm aware Toyota sell two ranges of Wiper Blades - OE blades and their cheaper Optifit Wiper Blades, made by Trico. You could also consider buying Toyota rubber inserts for your existing blades - fitting is relatively easy.

Can anyone help with a link for the proper size inserts? I am unable to find the right length and thickness..

[TazUddin]

28" and 14" for front.

12" for rear

 

Hatchback 2019 model. Guessing the same throughout.

Sorry, what i meant was a link where to buy them from 🙂 I could not find the right one for the 70cm one especially and the dealer here does not sell the inserts separately, just the whole thing.
