Fronts are both 18". £5 odd each from Vaux (no spoiler so will lift at speed) or about £15 for 2 (Bosch) from Halfords with the spoiler so don't lift as bad.

I have Bosch ones on mine (from Halfords). They are terrible. The drivers side one is starting to leave very slight lines after only 6 months (3,000 miles and not much of that is rain driving) and the passenger side one scrapes over the windscreen unless its belting it down. I certainly wont be buying any again

I meant that brand, not wipers in general .
That said, when i first got my corsa someone must have done something to the windscreen, hardly needed the wipers on at all in the rain if you were going at speed, the water would bead off the second it hit the glass.
