Front Wiper Options???

[rdcoops]

Brand new around £80 for the arms and blades.
Ebay as a kit ready to buy
They do come up secondhand now and again.
They are of a golf mk4 or a bora or an s3 Audi.

2006 Seat ibiza arms and blades on a leon?

 

[LEE69]

No idea, sorry.

I put the polo aero arms and blades onto my mk3 Ibiza Cupra... don't know if they were worth the £90 I paid! a good set of valeo blades would prob do the trick!

 

[Trublu07]

Has anyone fitted the s3 ones. Don't want to spend out if they won't fit.

yes was shocked at the prices at my local VW dealer

arms with VAT were £38.53 each
blades with VAT were £14.12 each

Total = £105.30...............FOR WIPERS

That's about right, don't forget you need the arms and the blades for around the £90 mark (of ebay) the arms and blades are very different to standard hook ones.

I'll see how the OEM arms look with the Bosch Aerotwins.
(got an offer for them for about 17 GBP local currency, couldn't refuse it )

If it going to be that bad as it seems from your pic, just sell them and go for the Golf MkIV aero wipers and blades.

Can I use the original bolts and covers when using mk4 aeros?

 

[LEE69]

Bolts yeah, not sure on covers, but i don't see why not did you win them then?

 

[Trublu07]

Teah, third time lucky. I would have thought the covers will fit but will have to wait and see.

I'm going to try and get the front arms and wipers kit and replace the stock ones on my LCR. I was going to do the Fabia rear wiper mod but found a Golf Mk4 Aero rear wiper kit on ebay as well. Anyone know if the Golf Mk4 Aero rear wiper arm will fit a Mk1 LCR?

 

[gemini]

yeah, I was told it does fit
somebody has even posted pics here
