Noticing that the Yeti rear blade looked like the Ateca rear blade tonight in a car park sorted out the Bosch replacement codes for front and back. The front blades can be ordered individually or as a pair but important to note that RHD is different to LHD so if you buy them in a supermarket abroad like Auchan they won't fit for UK cars.

So those are the important fitting codes. The front are common across a number of VAG cars. Anyone who wants to order the front blades separately rather than in a pair can interrogate the Bosch parts site. You can also try out your existing car to see whether any wiper blades will carry over.

There is also a YouTube video on how to do it. Note the front part number difference for RHD and LHD as far as the video is concerned:

As long as they are Bosch. The Valeo blades for the Altea were thought to be rubbish so I stuck with the Bosch ones so Im going to do the same with the Ateca. Blades as fitted. The dealers were suppose to fit non Boscb blades that were rubbish. I kept one step ahead of the Mot by having my own supply :). Most of mine I picked up on Xmas trips to Germany were the Bosch parts and service network got them in for me for collection. They were about half price to uk sourced ones till the Euro/£ changed. At £40 for Altea blades I was getting them for less than £20. Ateca ones are much cheaper being common parts.
