Window wipers...........................

Went to Halfords yesterday and got a set of window wipers which clearly state they are for the RRS 05 on but they WILL NOT fit for some reason.

Any ideas?

A colleague of mine who has an RRS says the Halfords ones dont fit and the only place to get ones that do is Land Rover??

Got two pairs of the cheaper ones for my D3, very pleased with them after 800 miles. Hids4u are sponsors D3side and I received them couple of days after ordering. Me happy bunny! This is assuming RRS & D3 sizes are the same.

Retried OEM after 2 sets of Valeos, binned the OEM after 4 months as they are so noisy & juddery. Wouldnt touch them again as for the same cash Valeos are much better and last 2 years.
