Anyone have an idea of cost for a set of wipers, for a saloon, on TC?
Cheers

Filter - £6.47 (early cars) £13.28 (later cars)

Hope that helps. :y

Is there any appreciable difference between GM and Ebay special?

For pollen filters (only), if an egay one was much cheaper AND was carbonised type, then go for that.  Facelift climate panels don't like the cheaper non carbonised ones.

For Air filters, GM only, pattern ones are universally sub-standard :)

Wipers on TC at Halfrauds is quite reasonable ;)

I change my wipers every year around Oct/Nov time (GM) and they seem to last 12 months.

Duly noted - it's on the list.

This might be of help to someone? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vauxhall-Genuine-Omega-Pollen-Cabin-Filter-93182438-/160697617520?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item256a530c70#ht_811wt_698
