Couple of pics of the full conversion for you.

i do prefer ther full conversion, just looks a bit more finshed!
Budget is the decider tho!

 

[Nathanio]

olaf that a mk4 golf conversion?

 

[olaf]

Yeh they are from a Mk4 Golf.

i fitted front set to my car now and they look great on the ibiza, cant seem to figure out how to fit the rear one yet

valeo blades are 21" and 19" - as that is what i bought as direct replacement.
Having seen this discussion a few times, i even went outside and measured just to be sure and yep 21" Drivers with spoiler and 19" Passenger no spoiler.
fantastic service from them and well packaged to boot.

Do the valeo ones squeek? Had my car a year and that is one of the things that gets on my tits, when it's just raining even the slowest setting they squeek like crazy.

You can get a conversion to fit your original arms for less that £25.00 from a vw dealers part # 1J2 998 002 (conversion) which i'm getting tomorrow,


here it is ---> http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=135795

Or you could spend £60-75 on getting the complete golf mkiv arms and blades off ebay, which olaf has pictured above

If you want a matching aero rear i fitted a 06 touran rear aero cost about £25.00, which you can get from vw dealer or vagparts.com, which isn't universally loved (but i like it) or you can go the ubiqitous fabia rear wiper which is a bit smoother looking...

Touran part #'s
Arm 1T0 955 707C
Blade 7E0 955 425
Cap 6Q6 955 435B

Why don't people go for the geniune Bosch Retro-Fit Aerotwin ones?

www.wiperblades.co.uk/bladelist.php

The code for Mk1 Leons is AR531S. 21" and 18" perfect for Leons.

No need to change the wipers and are just as good as the Mk4 Golf conversions.

Check out how they work at the official Bosch site.
