settled with original Bosch
I ended up ordering from the dealer, part # 3D1 998 002 - they look to be OEM Bosch, and fit perfectly. For anyone that will be ordering, the picture shows 1 blade but I can confirm that part # is both driver & passenger side wipers.
Bosch Icons. They come with the correct adapters to fit the arms and they’re very easy to install. They’re on the pricier side but they’re more than worth it. It’s all I use now.
I bought Bosch Envisions and you just replace the entire thing. They work great and almost silent.
Bosch Icons for the win. Night and day over the OEM. They fit perfectly, too!
Bosch is the only way to go. It's what I get for my 08 Rabbit. ????
I bought some Bosch Icon blades at Walmart.
I picked some up based on that and can also confirm the install was easy and fits with the wiper nozzles
On the topic of rear wipers has anyone else had issues with the OE blade? I had mine replaced under warranty because there was a big section not clearing water at 2k miles. The VW replacement blade wasn\u2019t much better now it\u2019s been a year and I just replaced it with a Bosch A383H which is a direct fit replacement. I\u2019ll have to wait for another good rain to test it.
Bought Bosch Clear Advantage 26CA replacement blades. The number 6 adapter is supposedly the one that fits, but it doesn't. The adapter itself fits without the blade attached to it, but with the blade attached, the metal mounting brackets on the blade make the assembly to wide. WTF? Any suggestions on what to buy that WILL fit? TIA.
