New style wipers for Octy?

Featured Replies

My vRS wipers are well 'rubbish' - I have seen a new style of wiper on new VW cars, where can I get these online and will they work?

Thanks all.

Why do you tink that these new style will be any better (I think I know the sort you mean). Quality of the wiper is as much to do with cleanliness of the glass and wiper blade as it is to do with the make of wiper itself. Degrease you windscreen and blades first off and see what that does would be my first recommendation.

I agree with Leeboy, but had always found the passenger wiper to be crap.

I fitted the new aero wipers a couple of weeks ago, and so far I am impressed. There is a group buy organised with VAGparts (see GB links). Same wipers as Golf Mk4

I think the MKIV Aero conversion is much better than just the standard blades.

So I need a MKIV Aero conversion wiper set? Are these on eBay?

I have tried degreasing my windscreen and fitting new and degreased blades to no effect.

My passenger wiper is definatly worse!

I've just fitted aero wipers to my vRS. They are MILES BETTER than the old ones.

I think the aero wipers are much better - they sell them at VAGParts.com, or the part numbers are on my website if you want to buy them from a dealer - Pimp My Skoda!

Just need to get a polo arm/wiper kit for the rear and I'm sorted

If you look under the group buys section on here you will find a post by mbames as he set up a group buy for them.

IIRC this group buy saves you about £20 off the standard price.

I did mine ages ago and can honestly say it's the best upgrade i ever did.

What about rear parts for saloon Octy and does anyone have link to group buy post?

Dunno about the hatch octy. The window is so big that I don't think any other VW/AUDI has that big an aero wiper at the back.

When you come to do the wiper arm swaps, you may find the arms a pig to remove. I had to revert to using my ball joint seperater to lift the arms of the spindle they were that tight.

The rear of the Octy Hatch doesn't have an aero conversion :(
