I have a pair of the Bosch aero twin type blades on the roadster. I always think they look a bit bulky around where they attach to the wiper arm and wondered what blades were originally  "factory fitted"

The retro fit Aero Twin blades do look bulky around the mount to the arm. I think it is because on a standard frame blade the hook on the arm sits inside the frame. On the Aero Twin it has to sit entirely above the blade, so shows more. There are bunch of options for the '2 illustrated here

I use the Bosch, they seem fine, only last about 2 years, do the aero blades work better as most modern cars seem to use them?

Valeo make good wipers. Not sure if they make MR2 compatible wipers. I really need some too.

Funny enough, I bought a set of Valeo frameless wipers for mine. A little bit chunky in the bracket, but work well  s:D :D s:D

I've tried all sorts over the years. I now (for my last five Toyotas - mine, the wife's and sons) buy them direct ftom the dealer. A bit mote expensive but last ages. No streaks. They supply quality blades - I'd never bother with anything but now.

Here's the photo's of the OEM wiper blades you asked for. They have lasted for ages, and are still wiping as good as new. Every time I wash the car, the rubber blades get a good old scrub with a toothbrush and a bit of washing up liquid which seems to keep them free of grease, and streak free.
