Just take a measuring tape and measure them. That is all there is to it. The twin blade ones will cause scratch marks on your windshield. Dont go in for them.

i changed to BOSCH a couple of month back and they have been giving me good results since then . I do not remember the size of the blades but i remember they cost me in the neighbourhood of about rs 400.

Somehow i have had bad experiences with Syndicate IMHO you should stick to BOSCH

yes thats the best thing dont think of putting in the OEM ones. they cost a freaking 1450 rs!! i did it. my dad doesnt allow anything outside of the MGF showroom

but yes they are good. none the less.

but lets be practical go for bosch ones i can vouch for them there is a better grade for 900something from Bosch itself. they are also top notch but will show their prowess in extreme conditions only.

and yes for those who want blaukpunkt anything CAR systems i meant can approach me in CBE. any bosch employ gets 18% discount for navigation systems and a cool 15% discount for car audio stuff. we will see what can be done.Bosch power tools and pressure jets also we get cool discounts. keep it a secret ok. haha lolz.

Exactly, the A.S.S. sells the wiper blades for 1000+, those crappy ones.

Actually my service advisor at Hyundai A.S.S told me about the rs 900 Bosch wipers but i could not source them , he even advised me against the OEM ones hehehe...

So now i know whom i can contact if i wanna buy some BOSCH stuff ! i had a couple of friends but one of them got flown to Japan and another one to germany for the next three years , both were in QA.

Go to the Bosch India website. They have a chart somewhere with the various wiper replacements for various Indian cars. I used that to replace my Baleno blades. The Bosch replacements are super silent, and very, very effective. If I remember rightly they cost me around 350/- for the pair, whilst I paid over 700/- for my Hyundai OEM last year for the Getz !
The part number for your Verna is 3 397 010 055.
Bosch is really worth it.

Thanks for the info guys, just called the Delhi number from the PDF file, they gave me the address of the dealer in Karol Bagh.

The person also said that their blades are made with such a technology that even of they are used without water, they will not hard the windscreen. They have reverse action.
