    What oem wiper arms to 'aero'ise a urS6 ?

    I want to source vag oem aero wiper arms for the front and rear of my UrS6 Avant. Would welcome advice on which model of car I can get them from.

    I want oem wiper arms, rather than use an adaptor on the current original wiper arms.

    Thanks.

    What size spline is it? If it is same as your S2 then you can use early C5 aeros

        I've tried various arms and yet to find any that sit right, seems on the C4 there is not enough bonnet to hide the arms well.
        I butchered some side-pin aero ends onto A4 arms which sit lower down on the window, better but still not the perfect
        I've a pair of A6 aeros but they also sit too high, however I will be grafting these onto 80 arms to flatten them out

        I've a Transporter arm for the rear, will get p/n and pic when I can

          And a photo of the current front set up to better appreciate what you've said ?

          Thanks.

              Offered up standard S2 wiper arms to the urS6 wiper spindle, and the S2 wiper arm spindle hole is the same diameter as the urS6 spindle shaft.

              But the S2 wiper arm at the spindle end s thicker that the oem urS6 wiper arm.

              The S2 has a lower 'skirt' of metal at the underside of the wiper arm.

              So not really too much wiser. Will have to look in the breakers yard for a C5 in due course, unless any one already knows the correct aero wiper arms to use for definite ?

              Thanks.
