Happy New Year everybody. I greeted 06 with an Aero upgrade.

I don't know why I waited so long to do this. I've always disliked the OEM bulky blade assembly, this is a far cleaner look. They work great too, lots of rain around here to test.

PITA to get the old wiper arms off
cheapo gear pullers (and wiper arm pullers)
were worthless.
Used a heavy duty powersteering pump puller
THAT did it in a second!
Very happy so far but the passenger blade isn't tight on the windshield at the very edge. Seems that a blade 1" shorter may work better
I agree that it looks MUCH better
Also seems to work better at speed (less lift, tighter on windshield), esp for the driver's side.
Cheers!
PS. I got mine from ecstuning.com. Superfast shipping and excellent customer service. Thanks Jason!!!<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi?searchstring=wiper&searchqt=b yvehicle&make=Audi&model=TT&submodel=Q uattro&engine=225HP">aero wipers from ECS</a></li></ul>

a friggin prybar, block of wood, squirt of WD-40 and brut force! Found it to be easier with the wiper in the up position...took some of the torque off the connection.

Your probably right though, an inch shorter would be right on the money. A little short on top though would be the trade off. I'll stick with the flying edge!
