yes same here 18 and 19 on the drivers side. A halfrauds guy told me the reason my old wipers were noisy was because "the protective film has worn off the blades"; and then made me feel a new one. He also said that aero blades were practically useless...

I ordered these  on ebay for my Mk3 and arrived yesterday, seemed to be very loose. Got the impression they could come off pretty easy. Left on the old ones temp, Will try and fit them properly later and let you know how i get on. Think the drivers side is 21" and passenger is 19".

21" is far to big, a cheapy ebay jobs will suck.. buy decent ones for about 12 quid each

VW dealers sell them for the mk3 at a reasonable price
