No not the same size drivers side is bigger and yes £22 for the pair. Ive also found in the past that "cheaper" wipers are crap - I hate to say it again but you get what you pay for end of!! Buy quality ONCE :afro:

Right thats another £22 of my misses shopping money you've just spent !

She'll be after you soon !!

The vw part no is:  1J2 998 002 and fit your  existing arms!! £22 of your finest english pounds  :laugh:

I just rang to order these from the stealers and it came up as an 'Aero Conversion Kit' - Was £23.49 - Does that sound right?

Thanks,

very true that rich we had a bmw e30 at work and he hd aero wipers and they smeared the screen like there was mud on the blade, horrible.
I must warn you I'm about as decisive as a 5 yr old in a sweet shop!!  :grin:

£23.49 is bang on. Mine should arrive at the stealers tommorrow the parts guy said that the wipers on their own are £10.something each but they need different clips to fit on the mark 4 arms which is why they're called a conversion kit.
