If I hadn't bought the 'best of both' blades yesterday, I think I'd be scouring evil bay for b7 arms. I'll see how the new blades go, and if their rubbish I'll be doing the b7 conversion!

Yeah, looks like I bought my aero blades for no reason :/ Since found an ebayer who sells the best of both - aero blades which have standard connectors. 20 notes, although I have spent about 15 on previous old school blades (with B5 type fitment) and late B6/7 aero blades. Guess I'll hang onto...

The original blade was metal framed. I was told on this thread that I have aero arms. So I've bought 22" aero blades to fit the arms. But it doesn't match up. Confused.

Right... This is getting to be a pain, now. The aero wiper slider connector is different to the plastic clips on the end of my wiper arms. Here's a couple of photos: Connector on the new aero wiper: https://www.dropbox.com/s/s1mhponcn598kgm/2014-09-13%2015.49.32.jpg?dl=0 Connector on the end...

Thanks for the link! Good to know the B7 mats are the same. I wonder if B8 mats fit as well? As for the 'awesome' mats, they look great, but would be way better than the quality of my interior at the moment!

I could do with a newer pair of front floor mats for my B6 Avant, but most of the sets of genuine mats of evilbay seem to be for the B7. Anyone know if the B6 and 7 mats are the same? Is the Avant any different to the saloon fitment? Thanks

Thanks for the replies. I ordered 22" aero wipers - just need to fit them now!

I did this on my B6 today. Thanks to the op for the thread! As VagCabby mentioned above, it's WELL worth drilling into each end of the glovebox to access the 'hidden' ends of the pins running through the hinges. I just used a nail and hammer to drive each pin out then. Nice and quick with no...

Cheers all. Does anyone know if 22" aero blades will fit a B6 Avant? Looks like the B7 would be 22", but I thought they had the same sized screen as the B6 (and my current B6 wipers are 21") Am wondering if these will fit (call 'V-notch fit'?): eBay - Item # 390623471564

I've bought a 2003 B6 Avant which needs new front wipers. Main problem is that the 'old type' connectors on the wipers I've just bought are nothing like the ones on the car already. The ones on the car look like this: I always thought this type of connector was the one for aero wipers...

That's ace news, cheers!

I need to replace the front wing on my B6 avant (2003). I'm struggling to find a breaker with an avant in stock, but several saloons are available. DOes anyone know if they are the same part? Thanks

Jumped in my car today, and the electronic climate no longer directs air onto the windscreen... The red light comes on the button, and it sounds like flaps or something are moving in response to the switch. However, with the blower on full chat, no air comes out of the dash top screen vents and...

Thanks Swarcup, will have a thorough read in that case.

Yes they came from an avant. Is the ECU programming straightforward? I have a friend with vagcom on his laptop, but am not sure if I should unleash him on my pride and joy?!

Try the more substantial ebay wiper pullers. Best tenner I've spent, and mine were solid. There's no way I could have removed them without trashing the palstic surround and/or screen otherwise. Here you go: wiper arm battery terminal alternator bearing puller | eBay

Whilst your thinking about springs, would it not be better to fit coilovers, so you can tweak the height according to your preference once fitted? That's what I'm considering for my Avant 130 TDI SE.

Bump, anyone know if I can fit it straight on?

Well, I have been to the breakers and have removed the complete stalk and module assembly (the whole lot slid off in one piece) complete with indicator ring thing secured to the front. The indicator ring has rotated slightly as I removed the whole lot. Could I just fit the entire lot onto my...

Excellent link, think I will give it a go. Cheers!
