Where can one get the exact size wipers for my 2000 E46 coupe? Halfords NEVER have the right size, and I dont fancy the risk of internet sales, in case they dont fit.

Is GSF the place to go?

The size is 23 I think.

Don't fear the net!

 

I recently bought a new set of those cool retro fit flat blades from fleabay for my 2003 e46 saloon for under €28. Got them in 4 days, fitted in fewer than 5 mins, work better than the old type and look sweet too.

I have a 2000 E46 and having the same probem Mines needs a 23 and a 21 very awkward. I have tried cheaper ones and they are no good and as you found cant get them in Halfords so i have been looking on ebay but not sure what kind are the best? Any advice would be good guys! Thanks

Seen a discussion on these a while ago and I gave me the idea. I think I bought the cheaper ones tbh. I am very happy with them so far. Oops just cursed them! Reckon they will fly off on the motorway tonight!!

For some strange reason the 23" blade is NEVER in stock, anywhere; what's up with that? Even if it was only E46's that needed them that would be enough to warrant stocking a few! I buy mine online from the UK; ridiculous!

+ 1 I got some of the flat blade ones from the web...they look like Bosch Aerotwin wipers but alot cheaper. Just do a search for them.
