Ive had the wiper on about a week now and noticed when its about half way round the wipe, the cap unclips itself as though it catches on something :confused: Ive taken it off and refitted it but it still happens.

Dont want to put the old one back on, its way too ugly :P

I know a few people have these fitted on here- have you had this problem?

The cap is too deep & catches on the glass.

You need to shave a bit off the bottom of the cap & then it should be OK.

I never thought the std wiper was ugly, I think they look pretty smooth.

Leon owners buy em by the dozen for thier cars..lol

Yeah, but the 9N Polo one is better & looks neater.

This is how mine looks with the cap shaved.

Jon, I did think it could be that but dismissed it for some reason. I'll go and give have a go in a min (nothing better to do on a saturday night :mecry: ) Did you file it?

I didnt really think the standard one was ugly until I fitted this Aero one! lol

Thanks

dont really see whats wrong with the original one it looks good to me!

I actually used a flat grinding wheel we have at work, but you can use a file or, if you're careful, a Stanley knife.

Dave,

Apologies for an off thread question but seeing yr BRISKODA.net logo, (I just got one) am debating where to stick it if you excuse the expression!

Is yours an inside one and if so how does it affect/get affected by the heated rear screen elements?

An outside one would presumably get chewed up by the wiper blade.

Daft question but would apprecate yr feedback

Thks

Ive butchered it with a stanley knife and its ok now

The sticker is internal and the heater elements dont seem to have affected it, but I made sure I stuck it down in between them

I am considering getting the polo wiper, think it looks good:thumbup: Have you got a part number and price? Also is it easy to fit? Things tend to go wrong when I fit stuff so need to be sure:rolleyes:

which is which? in the pics?

no need to be a ******.

:ne_nau: Didnt know what else to say, all I asked for initially was some info on how to get the wiper to fit properly. Sorry, didnt think you'd take offence!!

But you're still wrong :P (j/k)

its cool

I remember , in the days before Briskoda , when we all used the VWVortex.com website , that the Yanks were clamouring for Fabia rear wipers to fit to their Golfs! It just shows you that theres always something else out there that you can fit to your car to make it that little bit different!

With the Yanks its a fashion thing a trend or a fad.

Isnt the rear Polo wiper the same as the rear Octavia saloon wiper? :confused: Seen one earlier today so might give Skoda a phone:)

It might be.

I know it's the same as the MkV Golf/Touran

Just phoned my local daeler up here and he said
