OEM+ RS6 Aero Wipers ?

Post by Pau1 » Mon Oct 13, 2008 10:29 am

Does anyone have any info on what newer model of VAG car us RS6 boys can use to replace our front wipers with the Aeroblade type?

Seen a couple on B5 RS4/S4's and i have some on my Corrado.

I'm not after the retrofit ones you can find on ebay but the complete blade and arm set up from something from the factory.

:idea:
Emerald Green Bentley Continental GT & Monsoon Grey Audi SQ5... Wafters :)
Sepang Blue C6 RS6 Avant, Mapped, LED upgrade. Gone but not forgotten... :(
Black C6 RS6 Avant, Mapped, Non Res Milltek, Black Optic Grill, and Fully Loaded... Gone but not forgotten... :(
Black C5 RS6 Avant, MTM Mapped, Non Res Milltek, Black Optics, and Fully Loaded... Gone but not forgotten... :(
Blue S2 Avant, Mapped, 18 OEM S4 alloys... Probably in the scrapyard now... :(
Oak Green Corrado VR6, for life... ;)

Best starting point I would suggest is VAGparts.

Does the wiper arm need to be replaced too? Or just the wipers?

AS grizz says, they look much better, but what i think is that they actually work! The faster you go the better they work! At 180 they take the lamination off the windscreen at 190 they stop the motor! :D :D :D
