If you want you can get the kit from VAG Parts from £13 +VAT. This is the touran arm/blade I believe rather than the skoda one.

If it's any help I bought one of these and it's good.

keep an eye out for the part numbers - i keep getting told they change the number to the arm of the wiper... but those ones from me and my site are the ones i ordered about 10months ago, and fitted to my car

Not sure about part numbers (being a lazy sod I asked someone order one for me when they got theirs!) apparently all the parts came (Fabia estate wiper) but the plastic cap was the wrong one as it didn't have the cut out for the window squirty nozzle. Had to re-order some more caps off the Fabia VRS.

Warning:

I have just fitted my aero kit from VAG Parts and it seems to be about 1-2 inches shorter than the skoda one, and about 3-4 inches shorter than the original.

That'll be the Polo kit then. The part numbers start with 6Q6.

has anyone tried the new A6 estate rear wiper? i was following one down the M1 last week and thought it looked quite smart

Am i the only person who has problems with the Fabia wiper missing the middle of the window but clearing the rest??

depends on what you call the middle of the window i suppose - its a big window

Nope, not had that problem on mine - occassionally smears at the bottom of the window near the spindle itself, but thats usually cos i got some sh*t in there and it just smears it across.
Blooming quite compared to std tho - dont even know i have it switched on sometimes!

is this from the new leon?

No it's either the Polo one (13" blade) or the Touran one (15" blade). The standard Leon rear blade is 16".

Thats the one I have just bought, did you find that its an inch smaller than the original? Mines now fitted, but I think I am going to go for the skoda one if its longer.

Thats the wrong code for the cover/cap with the slot in it - I know, I have one still in the packet in front of me

Pabs' site quotes the cover No. as 6Y6955435.
