I bought something similar looking to the OP's link, but from Bosch, called aerotwin. They almost work too well. If your windscreen isn't clean they can skip rather than slide in intermittent conditions. I like the aesthetics of them though.

AS much as I love my FG XR6...THE BLOODY WIPERS DRIVE ME NUTS..
Good advice here on AFF has helped but they still judder on the return swipe pretty often . The last set of blades cost me more bob than I expected it too , they're better but they still start to judder too much unless it's raining solidly . My AU on the other hand doesn't judder at all even when the screen is near bone dry ..|WEIRD.... |
