i realise this is an old thread but this is the first time i've seen a picture showing the problem i have. Even halfords can't change my wiper blades. I have the same round sprayer and the hose seems permanently attached but neither my garage or halfords know how to change it because all the blades for my reg look different. Halfords couldn't get the blade off and the blades for my reg even though it was their site that said they were the right ones have the sprayer on the blade which is square. I don't understand any of this. Its even more worrying that companies like Halfords etc don't know how to replace them either. The second image is of the halfords blades that come up on all sites when i put in my reg. That has a sprayer on the blade which is oblong. How do i change the one I have for that one when halfords says even though its coming up for my car it isn't the right one? Can anyone please explain to me in laymans terms so I can follow it and get my car through the mot this week. I'd be really grateful. Halfords couldn't even get my blade off let alone change it. They said it was permanently attached. I'm in a race for time as retest is on tuesay. Suzanna😞

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me. I have a 2006 S Type Jaguar that I've never had any problems with. it failed its mot last week just on windscreen wipers and I assumed it would be easy to have them replaced. I've come up against a brick wall though and its turned into a stressful saga. I typed my reg into halfords and bought the blades that came up for my car. Went to Halfords to have them fitted and they said these won't work they're the wrong ones. I told them that they were the ones their site said were for my car but they shrugged their shoulders and said they hadn't seen wipers like mine before. They tried euro parts for me but the same ones came up for my car that look different to mine. Mine has a fixed spray thing attached that can't be removed that can be seein in the first image. All the ones online for my gar are rectangular and different. I'm not sure what to do because if the companies that sell and fit wipers have no info I'm not sure where to go next as have only a few days to get car back for retest for free and even my mechanic has shrugged his shoulders and just said 'oooh they're permanently attached'. I've attached pics. First two are of my wipers and the part they haven't seen before and the second two are of the wipers from euro parts and halfords that are supposed to be for my ca but as you can see are different and i'm told aren't when i go for fitting. Does anyone have any information about this at all? Any advice as to where i go and why nobody seems to have any info on how i replace my wipers? Sorry for the ramble but am getting a bit frantic re the mot Thank you Suzanna
