MG4 wipers

[Hallix73]

do these match the standard lengths?
The Ali express ad I found suggested 24 and 18, I’ve not had a chance to measure yet.

Yes exactly same size. I think the 18" would clash as can be seen from my picture.

Chinese Rubber is not good.

That's what I told one of my 17 kids after winning a lifetime supply of Chinese condoms.....

Bought these today at Halfords £20. What a difference!! This set fits perfectly. 600mm & 400mm (24" & 16" in old money LoL.)

That’s a good price. I usually get mine from wiperblades.co.uk. They’re £26 on there. Halfrauds must be feeling Christmassy!

Can't fault Bosch wipers, I've replaced/used them on all my cars over the years, brilliant wipers.

I was looking, asked someone with the car for sizes of the existing and got squat back. I am in the same boat...would you mind measuring them so we can both look? I prefer Bosch aerotwins and want to fit them as soon as I get the car

Alan when out this morning god it is cold to measure the wiper blades on wife’s mg4 but I see that Hallix73 has just posted the required information and he Is bang on just to confirm.24+16 is right so you can sleep better to night I hope.

Interestingly, the Halfords website says these are not suitable for my vehicle. (Probably because they don't have any wipers listed for the MG4).

Were they easy to fit?

Do you have a link @siteguru ?

BTW, had an "interesting" phone call to both Amazon and eBay the other day, as neither of them yet list the MG4 on any of the drop down menus when trying to choose motoring items. One of them kept insisting I was saying I wanted to change my card and kept putting me onto the "Add a card" page before giving up and the other straight out admitted they had no idea how their car databases were updated!!

Right now there’s an Amazon supplier wondering what just happened.

I may be wrong but don’t halfords fit them for free, not for me personally fitting new blades is no problem to me, but some owners my not be able too or haven’t got a clue.

Good point Alan, (might get a free touch up paint as well ) but no better to make sure they know about it, they should do I would think as MG is not the only make of car that you need to put wipers into service position thats for certain.

No need to put in service position. Just press in the top Tab and push out in situ. Then just push new ones in. Simples!!

 

[bowfer]

Did the wipers come fitted with the correct tab?
Bosch sometimes come with a plethora of tabs.

No, this kit (A721S) has the 19mm click in connection, The (A556S) have 16mm connections so dont get them.
