Thank you Michelle & Super Greg for you kind offer

I have spoke to Bosch UK and they have no plans to bring them in at all, So I told the guy at Bosch that I would get them sent over from the States but he told me that this would not work as because of the left hand drive X5 would have different wiper blades because your blades go the oppersite to mine so If I fitted them they would be upside down! So might just have to get the rear one. Which if that parks up on the drivers side on a US car. will be the same as mine.

That doesn't make sense to me. They would just be facing the other way, right?

BTW, I have 418A as the rear wiper, but it probably doesn't matter for the rear to use 418A or 418B.

Basically the rear wiper is about 18" long and I'm just wondering if the A vs. B is the shape of the connector....or if the "B" type wiper is a little more flexible (I noticed in most BMW front wiper application, the "A" type wiper is for the driver's side & the "B" type wiper is for the passenger side).
