I agree, I run Valeo ones i buy from FCP, they are pretty good, factory style and fitment, plus they lasted me 3 years before i replaced them because they were making noisy glass farting sounds so i gave em the heave ho. I think the part that keeps em quiet is the slippery teflon-like coating that when they wear out they start making noise when the bare rubber starts to show. 3 years not bad on a $17 set, Ive had OEM Toyota ones on my 4Runner barely last me 10 months before getting super streaky or noisy.

When it comes to buying OEM like wipers for my previous VWs, I always had good luck with Valeo brand wipers.
I use Valeo wipers, i got me a new set yesterday from, FCP Euro. $22 for the set. Seems to work good to me, wipers in general don't work well on my rock pitted windshield, my OEM blades did last me 3years and 85k miles though, rubber was still okay but the streaks were getting bad.
Valeo (OEM to VW) on ECS Tuning, $30 USD for the set. Direct installation, no goofy adapters to mess with.
These Valeos are a direct OEM replacement and have been great for me for a year.
Ordered these from Valeo (VM387) for my R and my gf's MK7 GTI. They already came with the adapters installed and took all of 2 minutes to replace them. They perform great too. :thumbup: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SRACAOO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I installed this Valeo set a few weeks ago. They've been excellent so far.
I have Valeo wipers on my B8 currently. They clipped right in with no modifications needed.
Order these... They fit and work great. Took the old ones off and clipped these on. No messing with changing adapters or other nonsense... http://www.idparts.com/valeo-oe-wiper-blade-set-mkvii-golf-p-4647.html
Running Valeo's on my own car (A3). Was a bit hesitant as I've always run Bosch on my other cars but they have been performing very well, and would expect them to perform just as well on the Jetta.
