Default Bosch Icon wipers from Amazon.com... $45 shipped

if anyone was looking for these and doesn't have an Autozone around...

Anyone have a picture of these installed on their TT? They look kinda neat, and I figure they're good for a good +5HP

Default not Valeos...probably a move by Bosch to garner more sales being taken away from

Valeo. looks like they're made by ICON...a Bosch division? hmm. i have a set of Valeos on the allroad and these ICONs look too similar. could be made by the same company.

Default for the TT, i prefer the Bosch Aero's...more because the armature is thinner and less

bulky...makes the wipers practically disappear and more streamline than the OEM ones. parked next to another TT to compare, the OEMs look weird and out-of-place...almost freaky.

Default i've never heard wipers referred to as "freaky"...

good explanation. haha.

I'd get the Aero's, but they're like $130... maybe i'll splurge on them if these Icon's are sh*tty
