Went into Halfords to get blades for my wife's 2011 A Class , the guy reckoned they were 22" & 26" so went to check - they're 23" & 26".
Came home and had a look at the net - two sites reckon they're 24" & 26" but Eurocarparts will sell me a set which are 23" & 26" so probably go for them.
Question is would I have trouble with either the shorter length or the longer length ????
 
Just go with genuine Mercedes. I have always used ones like Valeo or Bosch but having tried genuine Mercedes I am sure that I am not going back. There are eBay shops for some dealers and pricing is very close to the branded ones you get elsewhere.
 
I agree completely ^^^.
Also, specifically for the W169 RHD facelift the best way is to get your wipers from MB, according to your VIN: facelift RHD had OS / NS wipers swapped (from what was the position on pre-facelift), so most, if not all, aftermarket suppliers are likely to mess it up.
 
Ebay, MB Newcastle, genuine MB wipers £32.99 Halfords £36.00.

Job done.
