I bought the Bosch H595 Specific Fit Rear Wiper Blade as well as the AR18U and AR21U. Worked out to $55 delivered to Australia. The last time I bought Bosch wiper blades in Canberra I paid almost $80 at Ricerbarn, so I am happy with my savings.

I just hope the rear blade is the right one!!

Do you have a preferred application method for rainex? I always manage to go overboard and it seems to make my wiper blades stick a bit.

Wipe it on in circular motion, making sure you overlap.

Then mist water on, an wipe over with a handful of folded paper towel. That gets rid of the streaky residue.

Sorry to bring up a slightly past use-by thread. Searched for Bosch aerotwins for a r32 on that wiperblades.co.uk website and it seems that it uses AR18U all around?!! Front 2 and rear all the same?? And anyone used a flat blade to replace their rears? Somehow I think the website has wrong data...

I'm sure the driver side is meant to be longer. I can't tell since mine already had aftermarket ones (refills you get from any auto store). Can anyone confirm?

If I could guess it would 20" aero for driver, 18" aero for passenger and 18" normal blade for rear. I would advise people to measure their originals if they can before buying.

My C34 S2 stagea uses the following

Front

1x 510 long

1x 460 long

Rear

1x 300 long

Sizes are approx. you should measure yours before you order.

I'll be looking at replacing mine soon too, the aero flat types look effective, I know I have these on my VW Golf as standard factory fitted and they work great.

Or to the too young to understand imperial;

Front

1x 510 long 20 inch

1x 460 long 18 inch

Rear

1x 300 long 12 inch

You had metric then you just added inches - that's imperial..

Just thought I might add. Ended up buying trico flat blades from autobahn to suit an r32 gtst. 20" fronts and 18" rear according to the book they had. Got em but not fitted yet. I will order the bosch for next time I reckon..should be cheaper from that wiperblades site depending on shipping of course.

Bosch AeroTwin Wipers can be bought from http://mycarperformance.com.au/wiper-blades/bosch-aero-twin-wipers.html they are $46 + postage

They also carry a cheaper brand for $26 delivered which have good reviews on ebay at http://stores.ebay.com.au/My-Car-Performance

Qeep aero style for skyline. Seller was streettunecomau, Only $10 + $10 delivery, stock in NSW, had them in a few days,

1x 18 in , 1x21 in. Took 5 mins to fit.

Highly recommended. They are single blade type.

I wouldn't pay $60+ for a very similar product.

Lol I like how the installation video is for the Bosch wiperblades in the ebay ad. Have you compared to the Bosch or Trico single blade types? Seems cheap enough for me to compare to as well.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
