Default Wiper blades never fit my 2008 S-Type

Why is it that I have to go to the dealer every time to replace wiper blades for $200! Where can I find ones that have the water jet attached. That seems to be the problem.

You may want to post your enquiry in the X200 forum.

Not sure of the quality, but is this what you're looking for:

Thanks so much. That looks like the one I need. It's less than half the price of the OEM so I don't expect perfection. The OEM's dissolve in the Florida sun fast anyway. BTW What is the X200 forum for?

All S-Types (X200 being jag's internal name for what became called the S-TYPE).

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to S-Type forum. This is the place to post technical questions about your model.


It's a very long time since I replaced a wiper BLADE and here in England my wipers get a lot of use. JLR list the RUBBER separately at a considerable cost saving. For the S-Type, the Part Numbers are:

Driver's Side
C2C25320

Passenger Side
C2C25329




Forum Sponsor S N G Barrett lists them in stock at $16.70 each side.

I used the Bosch AR608S wiper set.
These come with new washers jets and are an exact fit on the 05MY or newer S-type.
They cost me £20 on e-bay including UK postage.

Ever try replacing a simple sun visor! They glue the connector way up inside so you have to tear the trim apart. I just cut and spliced. Ridiculous. Well, less ridiculous than the XJ's
