georgen Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 measure them with tape measure mate, I know front ones are two different sizes and rear is 11", if you measure them then you know they will be right. :yes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver! Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Go to Halfords and buy a set designed for your car, the booklet and\or boxes will tell you which car they are for; or order an oem set from LupoBoz.Sure my Arosa was 19/19, but I put GTI arms on with 21/19.

red5racing Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 The correct length of both blades listed on ETKA is 475mm (19") The offside has a spoiler and the nearside blade is curved to allow for the curve of the screen. I have just upgraded my blades to Genuine VW aeroset upgrades for a 6n chassis polo. The VAG number is 6N0998002 and retail at £26+vat. The previous owner had fitted the Valeo aero conversion set but these looked of poor quality. They also missed a large patch on the offside direct in my eyeline which was the result of a worn wiper arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John90 Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 I have just checked on ETKA, and have found 530mm (20.86") for the drivers side, and 475mm (18.7") for the passenger side, and ALSO 475mm is listed for the drivers side (GTI). Perhaps the GTI has equal length wipers? Maybe red5racing above looked them up using a GTI chassis number. The 18.7" is presumably why some parts catalogue suggest 18" and others 19" for the passenger wiper. There is a part number for a 550mm cut to length refill pack containing 2 rubbers: 895955429A. These are priced at about half the price of the passenger wiper blade (6 euro, very old ETKA). Refills on ebay are a bit steep at £18, but they do seem to have the correct end moulding that is not present on the Chinese 99p refills on ebay. Would be good to get a cheap source of refills with correct end mouldings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR5V Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) Never seen an aftermarket wiper blade as slim as OEM ones - they just look wrong Wasn't aware re-fills were available, good to know when my current ones let go. oh and - Holy thread bump batman!
