How do the Alibaba blades stack up against MB OE? I know they look similar... but performance? The MB blades still work amazing after 8-9 months... might be the best blades I've ever had.

I guess the price was for a pair. If the car has magic vision control, the wiper blades are not exactly simple. In addition to feeding water throughout the wiper blade, the blades are also electrically heated.

An example of a good price in Europe €130.66 VAT 0%:

PS. I've never before checked the price. Currently running the original blades since 2014.

Welcome!

Step Away from the Parts Counter...Stay as far away from the Mercedes parts & out-of-warranty service department as humanly possible. These vehicles have a huge after-market parts base.
