Can someone give me a link to somewhere I can buy new front Aero wipers?
Not a retrofit or anything, my DAB came with them as standard and I need to replace the front ones. Just a direct replacement which clips straight in.
Sorry if this has been covered before, I've done a search and I only seem to be able to find retrofits! :confused:

I bought some retrofit aero front wipers from eBay last week. Arrived today and they don't fit! Despite the auction being for retrofit wipers for SEAT Ibiza, Leon, Cordoba and Toledo models. The problem being that they don't secure into the wiper arm properly. They have a V-shaped clip to fit into the square hole on the arm, not a square clip like the OEM items. :doh:

I've had the Bosch aerotwin wipers on my toledo for abotu 6 months now, all I can say is, they are worth the extra. Do a lot of motorway driving and didn't realise how bad the old ones were.

Plus they look cool. :thumbup:

I asked the seller about them and they said:

"Hi there. Do you know the name of the fitting you have as it sounds like the specific fit clip."

What do they mean?

Ad-Lav, is there much involved in "de-wipering" the rear window?
Also, how did you then go on to water sealing the hole?

Thankyou for any feedback in advance ;)
