1J2955425B - Passenger Side Blade

1J2955409D - Drivers Side Arm

1J2955410D - Passenger Side Arm

Front Aero Wiper Blades £27.00 the pair

Wiper Arms £70.00 the pair.

Thats the cheapest price I can get them for

I just bought some bosch retro fit aero's for £25

Nice saving and look 90% as good?

Think my local dealer will do them for that with Briskoda discount

I just bought some aero ones off ebay for less than a tenner delivered! Fitted them in 5 minutes, look spot on and work well. The drivers side ones doesn't have the spoiler but I doubt this will make much difference. Jobsagooden!

Flat blades dont usually? You were really lucky to find them at that price - definitely the real thing or mis-labelled on ebay?

bosch retro fits can be had for £25

I have the arms look much better than the retro fit blades. try a scrapyard. i paid 25 with blades

Same as above- try a scrappy- although I was 50e with blades.

Just fitted mine just search ebay MK4 Golf Breaking and ask. Got mine that way aero arms and blades £30 delivered

Just replaced my blades. Aftermarket ones were crap. So went OEM

Mk4 Aero all the way, I got some Retro s*it ones and they were on the car for all of 30 seconds literally. the std arm sticks up and there is a naf gap when you are sitting inside and looks crap.

mk4 Aeros cant really be seen much at all and are sooo quiate on the wind noise front.

really suit the car too

Can anybody confirm the sizes needed for Mk4 aero arms? I fancy using something other than OEM blades.

Also, what are the rear options for estates? Or are they the same size as the saloon?

21" and 19"
