areo wipers

[procta]

where do you boys get these from?

[WiNgNuTz]

Got mine from my local motor factors, mainly as some pikey little scrote pinched my original pair. Otherwise, eBay.

[cwspellowe]

They were selling for about £5 delivered for a set a while back on eBay

[Toms306]

I usually get proper Aerotwins from ECP when they have a sale on. Never had to replace a set of them. Got a cheap set from Tesco (iirc) and they barely lasted 2 months.

[Frosty]

As said like 5 quid off eBay. That's where I get mine from

[Curt]

Am I the only one who thinks these look really, really out of place on older cars? I don't like them in general but can't stand them on cars that came with "traditional" blades.

[Eeyore]

are areo wipers better than aero wipers?

I don't think they look out of place. I hate seeing the 'mess' of metal brackets compared to a nice single smooth line of rubber tbh, have replaced them on all the cars I've had...plus they function better and last longer too imo.

Would look daft on a proper classic car though lol.

Agreed to an extent but i use them because they clear the screen better, last longer and work at high speeds. The normal type dont do any of these very well and i used to use genuine ones until i started using aerotwins.

I got a pair of Valeo ones on Halfords Trade for £7

[Grant]

I'm with tom. I think they look better than the messy original ones.

Beware of the cheap ebay ones, they tend to lift off the screen slightly at the ends at about 80mph, then fail to clear much past 110.


So I'm told anyway.

[Slam Wagon]

None of the ones ive had sit properly on the edge of the screen, passenger side. Does everyone get this? My ebay ones have done a pretty good job so far, could do with some new ones but theyre only a few quid so im happy with them.

[WiNgNuTz]

Yeah, mine don't sit right at the edge on the passenger side, but i dont sit that side, so it doesnt bother me!

[Slam Wagon]

Never bothered me either just thought if someone knew a set that didnt do it then id get them.

[devils_fuel]

So I'm told anyway.

Telling porky pies grant??

[4WayDiablo]

Sometimes on 2 for 1 at tesco £7 all in with deal and mine have lasted well!

[cwspellowe]

What? You just put up a thread saying you're building a show car for f*ck's sake. f*ck knows what shows if you're spending as little as possible..

Wipers aren't a show item though.... I'm sure he'll be spending plenty on bodykits and speakers....

I can still see them therefore I consider them shown.

Still, the laminated A4 spec sheet can read

"306 show car
Audi A5 front end conversion inc. wipers and headlight bulbs
No not neons, road legal lights that aren't neons, i'm a classy bird"

Something like that, with added internet dyslexia

[Glen306]

well all I can say is that the wipers are from an Audi better that saying Peugeot wipers lol and a lot has already been spent

[Slam Wagon]

Theyre not going to be genuine audi ones, probably just crap from halfords or ebay anyway.
