    They remind me of the arms / blades from my old 2003 Golf GTI...

    MY17 ŠKODA Superb 206TSI 4x4 + Sunroof + Tech Pack + Comfort Pack + some extra goodies... (Moon White)

    Got my parts today and fitted amazing the difference its made
    Great to see someone giving it a go. Simple and subtle mod which makes all the difference to the people behind the wheel

    Mind you, I still need to get around to getting new wiper blades for mine

    Had a 60K service today and asked them to fit new blades as the little indicators said they needed doing, muppets fitted the old style blades to my aero arms because "aero blades where not available so we just fitted the OEM equipment (and thought you wouldn't notice)"

    Reminds me of my first IPhone changed the factory settings so I could do things the way I wanted , but when the phone was connected back onto the internet Apple reset the bloody thing back to its piss poor original setting . Seems VW do the same thing eh .

    Haha that's ridiculous. How did they even mount the non-aero blades, it's a completely different fitting!

    Doesn't fill you with much confidence that they have competent people in the workshop, given that this would have been more effort than just ordering the correct part.

    Yeah um... I can't see them working effectively.

    Probably best to take the van back and get it sorted asap.
