Mini Cooper 2007 Base Windshield wiper help

Hello all, I am a little confused on which windshield wipers would be suitable for my mini cooper 2007 base ?

I have a link to ones I like but would they be suitable ?
Bosch 3397001909 Aerotwin Wiper Blades - Set of 2 : Amazon.com : Automotive Bosch 3397001909 Aerotwin Wiper Blades - Set of 2 : Amazon.com : Automotive

Also what anti freeze would I need for the car?

Thank you and sorry for all the questions

Buy Bosch Icon blades. Part # 18A drivers side & 19B passenger side.

Go to the store & read the antifreeze bottle. You want one suitable for European cars. Many are, but check before guying. I use Prestone all makes all models antifreeze.

Hope that helps you out.

We do have the factory Valeo front wiper blades in stock. They have the little air foil for the driver side blade. They snap right in. Part # 61610028137

Thank you very much for the feedback, there seems to be 3 types of Prestone to use. Are there any recommended Prestones kind for the Mini Cooper 2007

Thanks in advance!

It will say all makes all models on the jug. What you want is 50/50 Prestone in the yellow jug.
