    Aero wipers, again

    Just wondering if it's possible for someone who has:

    -a coupe
    -lupo wiper arms
    -passat(?) blades

    to take a picture of the car or more accurately of a wiped dirty windshield.

    I'm interested in the wipe area with that setup.

    IIRC that combination was the right for a coupe for "hidden" wipers...

      This kit is available from VAG Parts with all the parts required for either the Coupe or the Avant.

        Also for the cars that are not driven on the wrong side of the road?

          Never read of this setup. I have A6 Aeros on my Coupé. I made some pictures of my wipers. Let me know if I should e-mail them to you. Although none with a full view of the wiping area. They wipe at least the same area as the originals.
          There is only one downside. The wipermotor has to work harder. If wiping a dry window it may even stop wiping. In real life no problem. They look great and wipe more efficiently.

            i dont know, i'm sure one of the VAG Parts boys could answer, as the website only lists the RHD version.

                Well for the rear wiper it doesn't make any difference RHD LHD
                The link to the other thread is for the rear (and probably an Avant). I only changed the front wipers.

                    Oh man. Yes, something like that. Are you using Lupo arms?
