This is followed by 28 per cent and 15 per cent spending RM 41 &#8211; RM 60 and RM 80 &#8211; RM 120 respectively. From the survey, it was also revealed that 70 per cent of Malaysian drivers viewed wipers as very important for driver and passenger safety. However, 53 per cent of drivers polled indicated that they stretched the lifespan of their wipers beyond 23 months; while only 32 per cent changed their wiper blades every year. Bosch recommends drivers to inspect the condition of their wiper blades regularly after the six-month mark, and to replace them once every year. \u201cWhile many wipers today can last up to a year, we highly recommend inspecting the wiper blades every six months for wear and tear,\u201d said Pang Yoon Kong, country manager of Bosch Automotive Aftermarket Malaysia.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 22px;\">Bosch Wiper Blade Hook Installation\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-17419 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/wp\/advantage-gif-rs.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Bosch Clear Advantage wiper is equipped with a hassle-free quick clip adapter that enables drivers to replace the wiper blades conveniently in just one step.

In addition, the flat blade wiper is equipped with a mono Evodium steel spring that spans the entire length of the blade, creating a uniform pressure throughout the wiper blade against the windscreen.<\/p>\n<p>For more information or locate a Bosch authorised dealer for wipers today, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bosch.com.my\/\"><span style=\"color: #ff8c00;\">Bosch Malaysia<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><strong>Do you have a car to sell?
