Aero wipers

[mattyb6]

My old style wipers were past it.
( il get some pics up)
The clips were snaps, paint flaking off, the blade were torn, perished, making awful sound, and only barely cleared the screen.

so went to audi to get some after I read a thread that aeros were only £68 quid for the arms and £21 for the blades

so gets them with a ...wait for it .....£121 bill.

Daylight robbery!!
i still paid as I needed them then. But just thought if give a little heads up if anyone is going to get them for the up coming winter.

Mine cost £40 delivered,secondhand but with blades and like new..best £40 ive ever spent and well worth doing.

 

[mattyb6]

A third of what I spent.
I couldn't be bothered looking around scrap yards etc.

I deffo recommend people to do. 10x better than standard blades

Those prices must have been quite out of date, cheapest I've ever found blades for online was £32 I think.

I asked the bloke in audi, and he said in nay they had a 10% increase on most parts.
Some odd parts came down but mainly popular parts went up

Does everyone else's last about a year before they start squeaking? I wouldn't mind so much but they cost me £40 a time at my local Audi dealer.
