just wondering where is a good place to get these, I forget where I got my last two but less than a year later they could already do with replacing, and whilst it's not the world's hardest job I'm busy enough with our vehicles without doing them every year, my first bx only needed them doing once in the 7 years we had it and prior to that it was my mum and then my sisters from new (6 years) and they don't recall them ever being done
hope you can help
thanks

I would suggest that you look out for a genuine set, either from a dealer or perhaps eBay. There have been a few threads about the lifespan of the pattern type being around a year, and I've noticed the same. The genuine ones I have at the moment are 4 years old and fine.
GSF used to do both, and it was well worth the extra pound but I think they only do the pattern ones now.

Thanks Guys
glad it's not just me who thinks they're rubbish
my local dealership in Sale were rubbish as ever but the guys at citroen manchester have come up trumps at a not unreasonable price
