I've gone with various types previously but you can't beat the Bosch wipers IMHO.

In the past I had real difficulty getting the right ones from local car factors and even ECP. They all had the wrong fittings or were the wrong length.

I emailed ECP to say they had the wrong wipers listed for the E92 as they were the wrong lengths. They sent me the right number and changed the website.

Bosch wipers were £23-24 from ECP of my E92.

The BMW ones are also good. BMW wipers were £33 from my local dealer.

Just go with the BMW ones, they're not expensive at all on eBay and last ages.

These are the ones I go for but bear in mind that my car is a pre LCI model.

The link you have put up from Amazon is the wrong type because they have the metal frames on them and not the semi flexible type (hope that makes sense!).

I had Bosch vipers and got rid of them. Found them big compared to OEM and noisy. So my vote goes for OEM.

OEM. The dealer just replaced mine under warranty and the new wipers work excellent.

If you're that worried about buying the wrong ones go into your local dealer & buy a set
