    Cheers Pete.

    I've got a second arm and shorter blade on order to try and get it all nice and level up front.

    Coupe rear is a work in progress, would be nice to get it all working properly.

      I've been having a good look at wiper blades on newer cars over the last day or two and most seem to sit as per my original picture, rather than all being nice and level and looking neat and tidy! Will be getting another driver's side arm and short blade to play with and might have identified a suitable rear wiper arm off another VAG product, the merc. one needs modifying so isn't a simple proposition...

        I'm guessing that the price has put pay to this idea? I could look for an alternate supplier (to VAG) but then you're into the realms of poor quality Chinese stuff that can be more hassle than it's worth...

          Anything further on this?

          Also does anyone know if the wiper linkage and holes are different for the USDM left hand drive cars VS right hand drive? I would like to get a better wiper setup

          Anyone have any experience with the Bonrath Single wiper conversions? If so hows the sweep angle and speed?

            This died a very quick death, I assume due to lots of confusing information posted early on... and the prices of the parts now

            Not sure on LHD I'm afraid, I would assume* that you just get the parts from a LHD Lupo.

            *assumption is the mother of all F'ups

            Check out Wolfgang's threads, he might have fitted front aero wipers to match his Mercedes rear item...

            There's also the option of getting the 475mm short blade rather than the offset item for the passenger side. This will stop it all overhanging the curved winscreen.

              Agreed, when you assume you make an "@$$ out of u and me"

                Hello. Excuse me for the UP.

                How is the info? You made some probes and adjusts?
                Do you know the correct references?

                I tried with some VAG's arms and I don't want open the motor bay to "up" the arms.
