Yes , still using those since a year.

Honestly I don’t see any difference in the performance compared to OEM framed ones.

My recommendation is to stick with OEMs.

Could you pls confirm if 26" and 18" sizes are an exact fit for the Slavia ? My stock wipers are 2 years old, and I just had my windshield cracked by a stone, so thinking of changing to new frameless wipers with the new windshield.

I too had a not so great experience with Bosch frameless wipers on my earlier car - considering Valeo or Hamaan.

Yeah ideally one of the blades is smaller(I dont remember which one) but 26+18 works fine with no overlap.

Re: The 'Wiper Blade' Thread

Ordered Schaffler wiper blades from motrparts.com for my Tiago. Somehow I see streaks within a month or two from the Bosch Eco blades from Amazon. Will post feedback after they arrive.

I too have noticed that the Bosch blades bought from Amazon aren't that great. Maybe their rubber is hardened as they are old stock or something but they don't last the 2 years that an OEM blade does.

Turns out Schaffler was out of stock and I was asked if am fine with Bosch. Rejected the offer right away and asked if they had Hella in stock. Luckily they had them and were shipped out the next day (ships from Chennai).

Blades were packed in a paperboard box and arrived safe via Professional Courier. Both units had 3D hologram with Sep-2024 manufactured dates.

Good to see protective cover for the rubber along with additional hooks for different arm designs. Bosch had neither of these.

Comparing the removed Bosch blade vs Hella. Visually, Hella appears to have higher pressure points than Bosch.

Installation was quick and easy. Time to wait for some rains in order to test these out
