Wtb wiper blades

[1843lamp]

I am looking for 2 wiper blades ,not arms ,20" originals with the word Bosch spelled out,the rubber does not have to be in good condition.

I am planning on using the original metal blade and buying refills.

when you say original, you mean what exactly? obviously not original to your car, and obviously not a new OE piece from BMW or Bosch the OE supplier. I have used blades to sell you if you wanna pay shipping.

I think you can still buy new ~$8 from BMA.

what is the difference between the "originals" and the ones that say bosch that I bought at my local better car parts store?

Well, ihad a photo of of one as NOS but I now can not find the photo.Realoem shows a Bosch arm with what I think is an earlier style with oval lightening holes in it ,like slots ,but the one I am thinking of as the original style that came on my car has square holes in it and is more common .I have two broken tipped ones of the square hole style on my car now ,the Bosch Mark is a symbol rather than having the actual Bosch name spelled out .My belief is that the original blades had the Bosch name on them but doing research is very difficult to find definite information ,I have photos of some very low mileage cars and early period photos but it is hard to find a clear photo.
