I have Valeo...not sure which ones, were ok but started to get noisey after about 9 months.
They have an indicator that tells you when thay need replacing, I assume it just fades in the sunlight - they indicated at 6 months & is now really annoying 
Just got some Bosch.......been to cold/dark or arsed to fit them yet.

I bought the unbranded ones from wiperblades.co.uk and they were fine, so Valeos should be good.
And ignore the manual which doesn't tell you to lift off the little plastic cover on the top of the blade to get them on and off. Prise it open with a screwdriver or you'll be at it all day. Tony

Do you know which ones I would need for the back or would any 15" do, may as well order them all at the same time
