Amazon big sale on Valeo wiper blades

Just picked these up for my 2012 C63 Coupe. Price says $22.66 each but when you add 2 to your cart and go to check out, there is a promotional savings added totaling $25.32 off making total cost $20 with free shipping.

The review said it didn't fit the C300. Other websites sell them for the C63.

C300, C350 and C63 all share the same part number... but you know what? Do whatever you want why do I even care.

I didn't read the reviews, however I checked the Valeo parts catalog and that's the recommended replacement blade for the 2010 (latest year in their online catalog) W204. If it doesn't work, they are returnable. I'll find out in a few days and post the result.

Here's the review a week before the guy whose C300 the blade didn't fit:

I bought a similar model for my other car, the wipers are awesome....

So I ordered this for my second car twice, once from Parts Geek, second time from Amazon. Both orders shipped with the correct box, but incorrect part (26 inch blade shipped). Spoke to the manufacturer, they believe a run of this part were mislabeled. Parts geek wouldn't pay for return shipping...stick with Amazon


I suspect this issue was the same for the C300 guy and has been corrected now, 6 months later.

So I say to Guilty, cmon man, pay attention too.

I agree. Your intentions were just like my original intentions, to help out fellow car enthusiasts.

Funny thing is the price dropped $1 from yesterday to today, although the promotional price of $20 is the same.

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
That's the annoying thing about Amazon nowadays...the price fluctuates all the time. The days of lowest price guarantee is no more.

Why did you cancel? They definitely work on the C Class. I installed mine yesterday.
