Wiper blades?

[ickleric]

I have just been to halfords and picked up a set of Bosch 21/21JS for the front. Now they seem to look different to the ones i have on. Also they are supposed to just clip on, but the existing fitting doesn't look like they will just clip on. What size should the blades be?? Have i got the wrong ones, as they guy at halfords put my reg into the computer to check.

after looking around a bit, i worked it they should have been 22". So i took them back and got a refund. So i have just bought a pair off ebay which seem the correct ones and also have the different fitting which mine seems to have for £13.89. Which is much cheaper than the £20 pair i had bought from halfords.

Rick, I found this as well.
The B6 has a different fitting mechanism, instead of the usual hook type it is a push in clip instead.
Got mine off the bay for £14 delivered

I bought an OEM AeroTwin conversion kit from my local Audi dealer. Once the blades wear out I'll go to the local spare parts store and by just the wiping rubbers as it's quite easy to change onto the AeroTwins. The rubber costs roughly 3EUR or 2quid, where as the entire OEM blades are around 45EUR or 30-35quid here.
