N/S Wiper Arm - any other Vag cars use the same fitting?

[Rhyme]

Hi Guys,

Looking for some advice before I head off to the dealer to pay over the odds.

Basically through my own stupidity I managed to snap the N/S front wiper arm on my car today, I attempted to re-adjust the arm as it wasn't sitting at the correct angle to make a solid connection however the arm had made a solid connection to the wiper motor and I may have weakened the arm whilst removing it.... long short cut short it snapped this evening on the way home from work.

I am going to drop into a Scrap Yard tomorrow morning before heading to SEAT dealership and just wondered if anybody knew if any other VAG vehicles had a compatible wiper arm which I might be able to keep an eye out for at the scrap yard?

If not hopefully not an overly expensive part from SEAT,

Thanks in advance

Mark

Id post up in the wanted section. You'll find a number of people have removed std arms to fit aero type ones.

Thanks for the response but I wasn't aware it was the whole are that got replaced with aero wipers, i just bought aero blades and need the whole arm that connects to the wiper linkage as its the bracket with the spring that has snapped - thanks for the heads up.

I need to get it sorted tomorrow as I cant really drive safely without having two functioning wiper blades - especially with the irrational Scottish weather.

Cheers buddy.

I just swapped mine for Mk4 Golf Aeros (arms and the blades!) and it is a huge improvement. See the "how to" guides for all the part numbers here. The wiper blade numbers weren't right but the arms were. The blades are held in stock anyway.
