Wiper upgrade

[PaulJC84]

Has anyone done the wiper upgrade on there car, to the ones like the golf have (Floppy blades)?

I was thinking bout doing it just what parts are needed?

Cheers.

Why are they so expensive /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

They're only WIPERS!

Do the wipers need new arms as well? Are these included in the kit?

One of my wiper arms is corroding and looks awful, if new arms are included it might bea good time to swap over to the newer wipers.

Whats so special about them?

 

[FezzR]

yes they include new arms cos the new blades wont fit on old arms,

the blades are redesigned and dont use the metal part like the old style, i think the whole idea is to work better with the curveture of the windscreen and reduce smearing and clear the screen quicker

I'll order a set then /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif Had them on my A3 2.0TDI and they were good.

What about the spray jets? Can you fit the later style ones where they "mist" the screen rather than the ones where you just get a stream in one area?

These sound good may have to try them out.
All my drivers side wiper has ever done is judder accross the window. May help solve that.
