My mate is selling his Mk3 Golf 16v wipers and I wondered if they would fit the Leon?

He says they aren't standard and I quote "lightweight and curved" which I am guessing as Aero wipers?

He only wants a £10 so if anyone knows if they would fit let me know, so I can get them on!!! :D

From what I can see with a quick search on Google the Mk4 wipers will fit the Mk3's so I would say he has got the MK4 Aero ones. Could be wrong though. Is he selling the complete set including arms?

MK4 Aeros fit and they are 100% better than the standard rubbish.

You can't go wrong for £10 mate, get em snapped up.

Yeah he is selling the whole shibang!

Even if they don't fit, a tenner wont hurt the bank and I could get rid on the Bay!

Thx for the info :D:D

Did MK3's come with Aero Wipers? Didn't think the technology was about then.

Don't think they did which makes me think he may have put the MK4 ones on. Same length wipers as far as I can tell, 19' and 21'. It's just if the arms fit.

The arms are not a perfect fit on the Leon either. You have to either cut one of the blades down or as I have done as per Pabs guide have the passenger side one at a slight angle.

Thats good to know.

He said he will bring them into work and we can try to see if they fit! If not I haven't lost anything.

VAG parts did a conversion set with arms and blades. Had them on mine, it was a mix of mk4, TT, and passat parts to get the correct fit
