Hi all
My wiper blades need replacing (not unusual for the C6 I hear) but as its the first time I need to replace them, i wondered if i could save some money and buy other brands to fit the C6.

Can anyone advise if these would be ok?

Would like to know how alternatives perform as ordering these in Europe (org. Citroen) costs more than just beer money (app. 30 euros)

Related to wipers and blades - does anyone know how to adjust the windscreen washer jets? Mine hit far too low down on the screen, particularly when driving at anything over 30mph...

From a close look at the nozzle and the water spray, they're not the traditional nozzles which can be easily adjusted with a pin/needle...

Rich, my experience with aftermarket brand was that they fitted poorly and this resulted in a lot of juddering/screeching. Stick with Citroen branded blades.

But they use an 'adaptor' to go on the arm so your likely to get juddering etc. as gmerry says

I bought a pair of these blades at £7.49 + postage and they work well (so have just bought another pair to put away for the future)... - Click Here -
