Me Again!!!
Looking at getting some new windscreen wipers (The Aero Type). Anyone got any for their YRV? And where did you get them from? Looked on E-bay and the seller I was going to buy some from wanted my Credit Card Details in advance...! 
Noticed the passenger side windscreen wiper is a bit on the small side. 
What sizes are the windscreen wiper replacements for the front and back?
Cheers, Jon.

Hi Jon,
Was thinking of fitting some too.
I hate the squeek that the originals make, strange that they are made by Champion??
The fronts are 21 and 14 inch, you not got a tape measure in your pad
Dont bother with the rear its a special clip in type. Quite expensive from the dealerships too, although you can just slip a new refil blade into the holder.
Set yourself a Paypal account on ebay, much easier and safer for buying.
Think it was the company Aceparts? that i was looking at.
Cheers,
Dave.

Tape Measure is something I should have asked for Christmas....
Hi Dave (or is that Grand Oracle of Daihatsu's!
)
Yeah just being lazy with not measuring the windscreen wipers.
Not sure who the supplier was, but it may have been that one requesting my Credit card details in advance on e-bay. Paypal, don't get me started on that one >
Will have a look at aceparts and others on the net. But as always thanks for the advice.
Jon.

You learn well Grasshopper!
Should have said Aceparts_uk is in Ebay shops, you will have to select shops or look lower in the listing. They are also listed wrongly as 21 + 20 inch but seller says just tell them at purchase and the correct size will be sent. God knows why he wont amend the ad?
Cheers,
Dave.

Hi Dave (I mean master),
Yep noticed that the advert was showing at 21" and 20". E-mailed him yesterday but yet to get a reply.
Just put in my new interior mod on my car today. A pair of Daihatsu seatbelt shoulder pads. They look pretty good.
If you your after any then I got them from here:
http://www.etamiya.com/shop/index.php?cPath=432_458
They work out at about less than £2 for the pair. I got the Grey ones, and they do match the interior quite well.
Just got the side and bumper protectors to go on yet. Just waiting on decent dry day to do it.
Happy new year!
Jon.

Thanks Pocketrocketer. I think I already had a look at that site, and they don't sell those blades for the YRV. Only uprated Champion standard ones. The site Daihatsudave has given out sell the blades for the YRV and work out at only £10 for the pair.
