Mk2 Wipers Recommendation

[Neo Badness]

After reading all the horror stories on here I just thought I'd share a positive experience I had on ebay, basically my previous wipers were knackered and needed replacing.
My old boy gave me a loan of his new VRS Tdi and I was inspired by the aero style...
Anyways they arrived promptly and were a doddle to fit once you figure out the wee flappy bit and really make a big difference over stock.

Next purchase will have to be HIDs, I need them in my life....

The have wipers come supplied with a plastic adaptor on them to fit standard arms, you get used to it. I just took my original wiper arms off, gave them a rub down and paint with some smoooooth hamerite spray I had kicking about. Looks good, or perhaps better than they were would be more accurate

Although I think I heard somewhere that Lupo wipers fit the Corrado so perhaps it'd be worth a fiddle about with see if they'd fit the mk2??

Like your light travels faster than sound thing, made me chuckle...

I’ve got them on mine too. Seems to only judder when travelling at speed, did you, or anyone else with aero wipers, find this happening too?

Sure I read something once on here that the juddering was the wiper motor giving up a little? Any truth in this?

I haven't heard that, but whilst (ahem) on my private race track, last night in the process of showing a Citroen C4 VTR who was boss I think I touched about 120ish and wipers were working fine. I must have been taking my brave pills

New wiper motor can't be that expensive can it? or is it to do with the tension on the spring in the arm being too tight and therefore pushing the wiper arm too hard against the windscreen I wonder?

It was on the motorway when they were juddering
So yeah
Was at speed 
Woulda thought the whole 'aero-ness' of them would stop that

[Neo Badness]

yeah, you would think
