or you can visit your local "VW" dealer and ask for "1K0955429" It is only about 10 Euro a pair. (replaceable genuine blade)

Cheers COXXIC, I will try this

 

[coxxic]

you should have a look at this guide :

It may save lot of effort while replacing, trust me :-D

 

[noddyFR]

Did not realise it was only the rubber part!!

I tried this on a car many years ago and thought the effort was far too much, rather just buy set, as the tension on the actual blade will be getting weaker as my wipers did on my Escort si, some 12 years ago....

Cheers anyway coxxic

May be I just didnt explain it to you in proper way

I dont think the metal part can loose its tension during time... So either you can buy new remote controler for TV when a battery goes off, or you can buy only the new battery. This is almost similar to our rubber part . Its always up to you.

 

[noddyFR]

I always buy the whole remote.....

Seriously though thanks for the post mate.

ps

that was the whole shibang, not just the rubber strip to fit to the existing holder thing.

Got the bosch one's here too (off ebay though), £28.50 all in

 

[Proby]

Bosch 'AeroTwin' off ebay. Paid £24.50 inc postage for a pair. Much bigger/chunkier blade holder than OEM, work a treat.

 

[noddyFR]

they are 26" for both drivers and passengers?? this correct?

 

[Stealthdave]

yes

 

[13snc]

can someone please post an ETKA number for same thing but for rear whiper?

 

[noddyFR]

What is the model of the Bosch ones?? is it A099s? For a 57 Plate FR Leon

thanks a lot guys... that 1K0955429 part is not compatible with 1P... whiper on 1P has that part of the rubber that is for aerodynamics.. you can't replace only this part that goes on the windshield!

and plastic ends are totaly diferent!

13€ bye bye
