It looks like they have a wiper that's similar to the aero ones. A4 is on the list of cars, so they imply that it has the correct arm connector. Each blade is about $19. How much are the aero ones?

Might have to look at these up close.

Default For windshield treatment, research Aquapel. Costs much more then RainX but much much much less

hassle over time. Aquapel probably ends up being cheaper or the same as RainX due to multiple applications of RainX is needed to equal the performance that one application of Aquapel achieves.

RainX may work better at neighborhood speeds (less use of wipers), but AquaPel performs the same at higher speeds and lasts much much much longer.

I hardly use my windshield wipers in the rain, and I never have to use them in the rain at night at any speed -- and I live in Seattle.

Default I assume these would only be for A4's with current aero arms as no one has aero blades to fit

"regular" arms

The rainX wiper blades have nothing to do with rainX liquid treatment

Yeh, I think you're right. I just ordered the aero kit from ECS.
