I ordered this connector just to see if it would work with a concert and it DOES NOT. I plan on removing the pins from the connector and reusing in the stock connector. So perhaps not a total waste of $8.

A previous post brought this up, so I figured I'd pass on my experience. I found the stock A4 blades an abomination in snow/ice last year; they very quickly iced up and pulled away from the windshield, making them useless. For anybody driving in snow country, I would recommend getting a set of winter blades. These have a rubber covering surrounding the wiper frame mechanism ("bridge" just above the rubber blade). Audi sells them; I have used ones made by ANCO (model 30-20) with no problems.

I bought the Autobahn winter blades from Clair Parts Express last year. Autobahn is the VW/Audi OEM brand accessory. They fit great and work really well. They are kind of pricey though...something like $36 for the pair (I'm going from memory here so I could be off). I posted the part number previously...it's probably on page 2 or 3 of this forum by now.

work after two winters and are REQUIRED as far as I am concerned. The factory blades are the worst I have seen in winter weather. However, since it is easily corrected I can live with this one small fly in the A4 soup.
