Bosch Aerotwin Wiper Blade BBA600 (Hook Type) $18 Each + Shipping ($0 with $99 Order) @ Sparesbox

FLASH20

Bosch Aerotwin Wiper Blade is the best OEM wiper blades IMO. The one I listed is for Hook type (there are heaps of other connection type) takes under a minute to remove and attach a new one.

The best is if your local Supercheap Auto store has the stock you are after, they will match the price without adding any shipping and if you have access to SCA gift card, you get further discount. I ended up paying $ 36 and use gift card for another 10% off so end up paying $32.40 approx.

  • How does it compare to the Michelin Hydroedge that you can find in Costco, and is cheaper? Other than Bosch has stock for 24" wiper blade of course (which is almost impossible to find in Costco).

      The blades are Costco are rubbish if it's on a car that sees a lot hot days. The blades only lasted a few months before a very loud screech sound happens when in use. Straight in the bin and I went Bosch and they are going strong after 2 years

      These are the top of the range bosch blades (even pressure point to the windscreen as a single flexible frame) which is most European OEM blades where dealers selling over $120 a pair (more if you need the rear). Costco ones are just above basic blades you can get.

    • D000FUS & JCRALLYART. Thanks. Too bad I may not have the time to drop by a local SCA to get it at $18.

      • still got today if you drive past any SCA

    • I tried the Bosch aero twins and it was awesome. Right now I have the Micheline wipers from Costco and after 2-3 months they are squeaking and shuddering.
      I just ordered Bosch aero twin replacements from this deal

    Both a Bosch wipe blade after using the Costco / Michelin one and the Bosch one is superior imo

  • Thanks…note this is for one blade,and you should always replace both blades at the same time.

    Wouldn’t order from these guys, Sparesbox is just a glorified drop shipping middleman.

    I ordered Bosch wipers from them a few months ago and they hadn’t shipped over a month later.

    Not only that, their recommendation on which wipers to buy, at least for my vehicles, recommends the crappy universal clips instead of the native/OEM versions - even when they have stock of the proper ones.

    Really, strongly, do not recommend Sparesbox.

      Agree, shipping time based on previous experience was painful.

      Pls check with the main point in the body text and you will find out why I post the deal :)

      Agreed with this, I ordered 2 with them and took them over a month to ship

      I finally received my order including Bosch wiper blades 6 weeks after ordering. Generic email reply to any enquiry. Not able to get anyone on the phone. DON'T order from these guys. Just get Supercheap to match.

    • I’ve had nothing but great service and fantastic prices. Never needed anything in a rush though.

    • Don't think they just drop ship. They do have a small warehouse. The margin on the cheaper ones is more that's why. I have dealt with sparesbox and I highly recommend them.

      • +4

        A small warehouse that likely doesn’t have 95+% of the items they say are “in stock” on their website. So they drop ship the majority…

    DITTO. I bought full set of brakes from them. They sent the front pair and never notified me that they ran out of stock of the rears….waited weeks with no reply before I had to threaten charge back from my bank before they took action and issued a refund.

    Don't buy from this mob unless you are comfortable waiting weeks on end for parts to arrive or never arrive.

  • I feel that my windshield has invisible rubber stains on it from a previous wiper. Last time i installed a new one wiper blade, it left water stains on the first wipe. Not sure if my glass is just damaged or i need to polish or deep clean it. Any ideas? Worried about buying these and then having the same issues

    • +1

      If you have clay bar and detailer spray, clean the windscreen first before putting on new blades

      • Thanks! Tried scrubbing it with melamine sponge (aka magic eraser) but did very little to improve it. Have to take my car for its yearly inspection at the dealership, so maybe I'll ask if they can do that service as well.

        • you can buy a clay bar/spray detailer kit at repco, supercheap etc and do it yourself easily.

      I use cerium oxide powder (Ebay or Aliexpress). A very effective way to remove the oil film, and then the old wiper blade just worked as new! Yes, sometimes the problem is the oil film on the windscreen, not the wiper blade.

      • That's great, thanks for the tip! I thought it would be something on the glass, since it's only happening on the driver's side, even after i changed both wipers!

  • $22.48 delivered on their ebay store.

    • Yes correct, but my main point is you can get it even cheaper if your read through my body text.

  • Ordered 1 set 600/450mm from these guys. Sent no dramas although I waited about 10days for them to arrive.
    I was so impressed with the blades that I ordered another set as spares - and they sent me the 600 and not the 450. Followed it up and they just replied they were "out of stock and will refund me the money for 1 wiper blade".

    Wtf am I going to do with 1 blade?

    Communication and common decency seriously lacks with these guys.

    • supercheap price match

  • " they will match the price without adding any shipping and if you have access to SCA gift card, you get further discount."
    How exactly does that work? I can't see the guys at my local store matching a price minus the shipping. Not sure what a SCA gift card has to do with the price matching? Please explain

    • As OP said. Get SCA to price match. $22.46 less 20% due to flash sale = $17.968 a piece. OP looks like he bought an SCA gift card at 10% off and used the GC to pay.

    • Sparebox selling 22.46 each (for my model), I call SCA and tell them the price and Sparesbox has 20% off sale so price goes down to $18, they don't add shipping cost if the other shop has a physical location in Aus. I have access to discount SCA giftcard and save another 10%

      • Called SCA, would only price match to item price + shipping

        • Have price matched Sparesbox multiple times using live chat for a click and collect order. No shipping charge.

  • I bought some replacement bosch from sparesbox a few months back (during the big wet).
    Yes, it cost more then, but I can say it was shipped to me quickly at the time.
    No complaints - the bosch work well

  • After about 5 years of bad wipers, I finally bought some for the wife's car. She's gonna think it's Christmas lol She been telling me for years how embarrassing they are to use

    • With Sparesbox shipping timeframes, it may well end up being Christmas that you receive them :)

  • Not sure about the retailer, but these blades made a massive improvement on my car.

  • +1

    thank you OP went to supercheap auto to price match along with promo code for all 3 of my cars!

    • That's a bargain price as SCA selling over $45 each!

      • +1

        Yeah xtrail fits these had to search on sparebox for the applicable blades for the civic and volks amarok.
        Civic and amarok $82 and xtrail $36 , for all 6 wipers crazy.

  • Purchased a pair at SCA last year and that squeaked massively from new. My previous Bosch aerotwin was ok but quality control at Taiwan factory is slipping or maybe I got a defective one. I had the hook type BBA model if that matters.
    How is sparebox delivery or click& collect? reliable?

    • I bought them from SCA auto price match no postage cost and I use discount GC. My last set lasts over 6 years. It all depends how you maintain and whether the car are mainly outside or undercover. I use BBA as well. Sometime the wiper arm angle also make a big difference

    Always ~$22 at https://automotivesuperstore.com.au/bosch-bba650
    And they give you a free windshield washer concentrate.

    These shuddered really bad on two of my cars. Cleaned the windscreen a few different ways and same effect. Went back to new OEM wipers and had no problems.

    • Same here mate. Squeaked and shuddered to the max. Didn't bother returning mine.

  • Bosch Aerotwins are the best wiper I've used period.

    As for Sparesbox, they are a hit and miss. Common items are ok, but anything that's not, be prepared to wait for weeks for them to get in stock, even when they say it's in stock.

    FYI, I got the Bosch wiper for my car last year and it took 5 days to arrive. This year for my wife's care it took 3 weeks.

  • bought 5 blades for two cars, totally 110, 88.91 after extra 20% off with free postage.

  • My last order took more than two weeks to arrive when rain days were finished….

    Thanks OP, easily price matched with my local SCA store over chat. Down from $92 to $37 (BBA650 & 400 in my case) Great deal !

    • How long it take for you to receive the coupon code using chat from SCA?

      They promised me 2 times today morning ( 2nd time was follow-up as they did not send the coupon code) and never sent the code. They might be just wasting customer's time and they don't send the code actually to save money :-), they had no idea what one representative promised and need to go through whole process of matching again, still no coupon code to process the order. Very disappointed from SCA..

      • It was instant. I've previously called them and they said the coupon would take a little while and I think it might have been ~30 min. This time I actually told the chat person to wait while I used the coupon to confirm it worked.

        • Thanks!!
          Not sure what happened in my case, not received it yet :-(

  • SCA price matched the Sparebox site sale (9%) but not with the addtional 20% FLASH20 code. So I bought 4 areo's (2 cars) from Sparebox with 20% off and free shipping in 6 days (over $99 before discount) for a total of $89. Now to see how long it actually takes for Sparebox to deliver. Hope it doesn't rain between now and then.

    • Good luck with Sparesbox (don't get me wrong, I bought things from them before at least 4-5 times, there was 1 time they don't have stock (Brembo discs due to Covid back in 2020 Jun and I went to chat and got them to refund me within a week, but all the other times they are delivered within 2 weeks from order date.)

      Whoever you deal with in SCA is a tight ass. SCA supposed to beat price too (I know they could just beat $0.10). Should complaint to their head office if you feel unfair.

      • Should be common stock and in no hurry. SCA would have cost me $20 more - a bit disappointing, Sparesbox couldn't be any more disappointing. Thanks for the deal post.

    • Yep my local Supercheap Auto wouldn't price match the promo 20% off price, only the 9% off sale price

      Same with the online chat

  • +2

    Just an update, I bought it from the deal and they have shipped it with Couriers Please, likely won't have to wait weeks or a few months. :)

  • i bought mine on Monday 29/7 and still has not been shipped yet :(

    • hope you get an dispatch update soon. otherwise, use the chat function to chat with them
