marinabrid Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 (edited) HELLO ALL just to let you know there is a new design rear wiper blade now available for all galaxys. most seem to suffer from poor wiping and missed patches on the rear glass, this new style is similar to the front aerotwin type found on the mk 2 galaxy a soft floppy type rubber. it has no metal in the spine and claims to give even pressure and a smooth easy ride over the glass. available on ebay now just type in ford galaxy rear wiper blade new stylee cost is around Edited February 21, 2007 by martinblackett Quote

NikpV Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 this could be the start of something goodwoo hoo being able to see while reversing B) well it make take care of the dirt/glass but what about the kids, headrests, buggy, kids bikes and OMG dare I say it the Mother in law - still reversing blind but the window looks cleaner :) Quote
marinabrid Posted February 22, 2007 Author Report Posted February 22, 2007 think id better try one on our galaxy before i sell em to anyone ! hope its not a duff product. i never use the rear wiper for some reason it does clip onto the standard hook arm , there is no similar version for the front out yet though before anyone asks Quote
jkspoff Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 (edited) I bet it wont fix my erratic rear 'mind of its own' wiper ! Edited February 22, 2007 by jkspoff Quote
chromedome Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 Sorry................this issue hasn't been raised for a while. I've just purchased a new style 16" flexy wiper blade from this site http://stores.ebay.co.uk/daytonagblimited for the rear wiper. They are similar to the aerotwin wipers fitted to the front blades Works perfectly, no missed bits. Check the site as there is an offer if you buy a pair. Quote
