Suggestion on new windshield wipers?

Accidently broke the passenger side one, seems like I cant find anything other than OEM to replace them with.

Has anyone found a good set? Its a weird latch system it seems

Bumping an old thread, Valeo are the OE manufacturers for BMW wiper blades. The set to fit the G20 is Valeo Silencio Wiper Blade Set Front VF371, part no. 574471. Much cheaper to buy direct than through BMW.

Always liked PIAA silicone blades since they coat the windshield with a rain-x like water repellent coating. Plus they have awesome longevity, like 3-5 years a set. Factory maintenance warranty is up so I decided to order a pair of the PIAA Si-Tech blades. 24" & 19" to replace the aging oems.

While sites online don't report it as compatible, I'm happy to report with the M + A adapters, they fit perfectly. A smidge bit higher than OEM, but don't look out of place. These sets comes with all the adapters you need.

OEM vs PIAA





PIAA on both








Standard bracket

replace that with the "M" bracket"




and then attach the "A" adapter
