    Has anyone done a rear aero wiper upgrade on the avant?

    I'm struggling to find one suitable for the B6, the stock one is completely useless!

    Im confused... the MY2004+ avant's came stock with aero wipers? Meaning no metal frame?

    I had no idea. Maybe I'll order one too, my stock wiper sucks. It just doesnt get used enough and alway has pressure point smearing.

    Agreed, that does look very clean but it seems that you've compromised the your sweep semi-circle as it appears to be 40% short.
    Is this set up availabe so that the top sweep reaches as far up the glass as possible or in other words; A wiper sweep to maximize as much clearing action as possible ???

    Re: Anyone upgraded their Avant rear Wiper to Aero?

    So I just received my DTH order of Front/Rear AERO kits. Yay!

    The Front Kit looks great, but the Rear kit looks like my stock 2002 Avant Rear arm and wiper blade.

    I am at work so I am just going from memory, but I think the rear arm is exactly the same and the wiper blade NOT a frameless AERO blade, but a standard bosch looking wiper blade (the

    Did I maybe get the wrong stuff shipped for the Rear Kit?

    Re: Anyone upgraded their Avant rear Wiper to Aero?

    I got mine too on Saturday but haven't had a chance to install it. However looking at the part, the only thing that seems different to me was the wiper blade itself, nothing else. I'm going to my mechanic this weekend for some other stuff and plan on having a closer look at this there. But yeah I was really surprised how similar the parts look like to my current wiper.
