wiper blades/upgrades

They pop up ebay from time put generally go for £50 plus - new ones being approx £80 for blades and arms iirc. Very worthwhile upgrade.
well on my A3 i just got the blades and there fine, however it seems that none fit the A4 standard to they ? you have to buy arms too aswell? Just want to be told the correct way to go without spending loads if something can be done good cheaper, im no tight **** but dont wanna spend loads on some poxy wipers lol
I have a 2002 avant, and like you have had problems buying new. I know some people on here have upgraded the arms to take the new blades, but I just go back to Audi for replacements now. I think the last pair were about £26.
my only thing is the aero ones actually work far better so if theres not much in it i dont mind!? but wanna know the best route, as said there seems to be a black hole for wipers on the 01-04 B6 A4

Need a V8 or Bi-Turbo.......
I don't think the design of the arm allows a "clip on" solution.
I got a replacement set from Halfords..... Even with my trade card discount they were £22.

Tesco do aero wipers that fit normal arms 
Least they fit most other cars, not tried them on an A4 since mines already got aeros.
Was the halfrauds wipers bosch aeros for £22 on trade?

No, just standard wipers mate.....Halfrauds don't offer an aero alternative for the 01 - 04 B6
You can buy new blades for your existing arms, I'm not too sure on price as they're a Bosch Audi specific fitment and available from the dealers (and a few other places according to the posts in this thread) Probably in the region of £10-15 each I would think.
OR go for an Aero conversion requiring new arms and blades for approx £80, with the cost of replacement blades the same or possibly less than standard blades (I think).
Personally I like Aero's, they're neater on the car and give a cleaner, quieter wipe in my experience.
aero's and arms where from mate? its fairly urgent you see as the wipers have NO wiper on them they fell off

I did 220 miles on the motorway yesterday....in on and off rain, with no noise (the only noise was wind noise when the wiper was sweeping the screen) Halfords offer fair quality for the money. I would assume that the halfords blades are probably made by one of the big manufacturers anyway.......

The dealer or pjmspeedy on here (assuming he's about, I've not seen him on here of late) - if it's urgent I'd probably just replace what you've got then.
if i have to order from the dealer for the wipers anyway why not order the arms? what arms do i need to fit IE what car or what year a4 etc?
