GB: Aero Wipers $180 Tax in, 5 People

[bart]

ok, so i stirred up some interest in these from the 2004 jetta thread. i called 5th ave, and if we can get about five people, according to my calculations, and him telling me the discounts and what not, they will be about $180 tax in.

here are some pics so everyone knows what i'm talking about:









That includes both arms and both wipers. Let me know who might be interested in this.

whats so special about them?

[bart]

well, everyone says they work better. mine freeze in the winter for example and skip the window. these are all rubber, so there is no frame to freeze. also, if its raining mad, it gets the rain off better. go on vortex and search aero wipers, read about them.

they look cool too, lol.

180 ?

Will anyone gets them if I can get a better deal? So is it like a Group buy thing, is it Bart?

[bart]

well ya, if you can find a better price for the aero wipers, we'll get it off of you.

I'll get some if you can get a really, really good deal. My stock wipers suck. They leave streaks right in the middle of the window.

[bart]

well, regular they will be about $250 to a non member. maybe c1 can get them, who wants to call and ask?

[kuhli]

interested but it would need to be a very, very good deal.

Me too.... 180 is a little steep for a clean windshield

[R_Ethug]

or pay a sqeagy kid 2 bucks :P
nah i'll check these out on my 16k and then put in my input

The problem is that any blade will go to crap after 3-6 months. VW will charge you $$ to replace those blades.

Some guy on tex said that you can actually use stock normal blades with the aeros - but doesn't that defeat the point?

PGP ran a group buy before for 144 dollars CDN

You can use bosch blades for the aero wipers, which don't cost a whole lot more than normal replacement blades anyways.

$180?? Uhh.. I just bought a great set of teflon wipers from kaltire for $40. WIndshield wipers can only get so good...
