@MVPeters... It is not that kind of blade arm.

So it seems we are still forced to go to MINI for blades. :(

I just found what seems to be
the OEM part online at Seattle Mini for a reasonable price. Appears to be orderable online. See the attachment.

61617411249 is the rear wiper blade

So I tried to order the wiper. The part number 61617411249 appears to be the rear wiper (line item 6)
The line item 5 is a set of wipers for the front. They are $55 from Kinnesaw mini after discount. Normally $65

Found: Aftermarket F60 Wiper Blades

This may be a dead question, but I have found a viable aftermarket wiper blade for the F60 Mini Countryman.. Look on eBay for this item number: 174046769751 . I just installed a pair on my car, and there are no adapters or any other nonsense. They cost $20, or roughly equivalent to run of the mill wiper blades at the auto parts store. The difference is, these fit. To be clear, these are nothing remarkable (

This is a screenshot of the listing from which I purchased the blades. They are installed and now on my car.
no name brand, made in China) but then again neither are the Mini branded ones.

Thanks for posting. Been looking for a set and have Aero’s on my other car and motor home. They are good blades.

I can confirm that the Aero blades listed above do fit my 2018 Countryman. $20 delivered Thanks so much for posting this. 😊​​​​​​​

Just got the 3-piece wiper set from ebaY, shipped from Germany, for about $28USD. Fit and quality are wonderful. Finally a reasonable alternative to OEM inflated prices.

Sorry, but these are what I ordered, and they DO NOT FIT my 2019 Countryman JCW All4. My car has the "end button" connector, the ones I got from ECS Tuning did not. The outside of the box says: A112S BOSCH AEROTWIN.

EDIT: See below...I was wrong!

I wonder if you were sent the wrong part number on accident. I don't remember what the outside of my box said but I also ordered the Bosch blades from ECS for my 2017 and they worked perfect. The connector did look and snap in a little differently than the factory blades. Otherwise maybe there is a change in style between the connector for the 2017 and 2019's.

The top wiper is how my factory ones connected. The bottom one is the style clip on the bosch wipers I bought.

Well, apparently, I'm a big-ole dummy. I have the same connectors, and if you said they fit, it gave me permission to try again. THEY FIT! I sure appreciate your pictures that allowed me to try again.

No problem, glad that my post helped out. The clip shape and the way the Bosch ones clip in is totally different than the factory ones. I figured I'd put the pictures to check though since there's always the possibility that you had received the wrong part. Good to hear that they ended up working for you.

Yeah, they just LOOKED so different, I couldn't see how to get them to fit. The wiper arms are now positioned a bit further from the windshield because the connector is thicker/higher than the OEM. This helps put a bit more pressure on the glass, without the arm sticking up obnoxiously high. Glad Sopey piped in and prevented me from making a mistake and sending them back!

I'm VERY happy with the way they fit and work!

Now I've had these for 1.25 years. Still working great!

I wanted to help people here that may still be looking, after a nightmare to find after-market blades (for my 2017 Countryman F60) and simply not willing to pay Mini $90 for wiper blades, i ended up getting the Bosch Aerotwin A112S blades from Amazon. the fitment needs to have the arrow style tip for it to fit. Attached images for reference.

If you still want to buy the OEM but at half the price, there is a seller in HK on eBay who claims to sell the right one, and looks like they fit if you're willing to wait: https://www.ebay.com/itm/254518517007






A little fiddly but once you have it in, push the blade up so it clicks in place and juts out at the top (as shown in the pic). Hope this helps!

Could anyone provide part number for 2022 Countryman? Our wipers make an awful noise when in use.

Thanks
