Title: Windscreen wiper sizes
Post by: Max GTI on 21 January 2009, 09:12

Hi Guys (me again :rolleyes:)

I have been looking to get some more aero flat windscreen wipers for my car and last night, I measured mine and they where 19 & 20 but the one I want to get on ebay say 19 & 21 so do I have the wrong size ones on my car at the moment or are the ones on ebay wrong.

cheers
Max

Can you get aero flat ones from VW cause my car is a 2002 so it has the old style wiperblades but I like the new aero flat style ones. The ones I was looking at on ebay where aero flat wiperblades but had the old fittings so they could go on the old style arms.
