Default Valeo Wipers Installed (Aero style...)


I have been eyeing wipers that work as well as the set on my R32. Eventually I found something slightly more affordable than the kit that ECS sells. These wipers attach to the stock arms, but the rest is pretty much the same. I actually think these look BETTER than the R32 units.

I installed them on my Avant, got all three changed, and I could not be happier. So I decided to put them all in a kit for our Audi community.

I know they fit the 2001.5 Avant, I will confirm the fit on a 2000 S4 sedan this weekend. Please take a look and ask any questions you have.

Default Trust me, you will regreat it. I charge extra $5 as I experimented with sizes.



20 and 21" ARE NOT the right sizes.

But I do have a bunch of 21, 20, and 22 inch old style wipers I would be willing to sell for $5 each....

Take a look where the wiper ends...

Default Tomasz, a few comments

just browsed your site. Do you really need SS brake lines? It was a waste for me. Also, I am listing my KO3 on Ebay, do you need them for project?

Default Hmm, do not need KO3's, if these were to blow I would go KO3 hybrids.

But the Wagon seems to be running well, and I hope to keep it that way. It is not even chipped. I need to fix my BiPipe first.

SS lines??? I actually do not know. I went SS lines and StopTechs at the same time. So I can't comment on SS lines alone. But I like your feedback.

Avant is for Kim, so ultimate streetability is the goal. That is why I wish I went 235-40-18's. I still may, and use the 245s as wets on the sedan.

Keep it coming.
