    Get the TrueFit Aeroflex - they are awesome
    About $70 for a set (but it's frames as well as the rubber)
    For your interest, Bosch's A937S Aerotwin Set for the Octy is both cheaper than this and it's quality Bosch, brand-name product.

    We are actually the OE supplier on many VAG models.

      I'll probably order some from you. I have a Scout. Do they have the same type of blades as the Wagon? Couldn't get the website to work from the banner link when selecting part for the Octy.

        Just bought a pair of Bosch AeroTwin from Burson's for less than $70 (I bought other stuff, so would have to check the reciept for the exact price) after seeing the Trico Tech for $70 / pair at a larger auto chain shop 200m away.

          Good to see our distribution partners being supported by forum members as well. Burson is our primary national wiper blades distributor, but we have also recently partnered with Windscreens O'Brien. Both companies can support with "offline" sales, but if you are not close to any of their stores, we welcome direct purchasing from our online store as an easy alternative.

            The Bosch shop is actually cheaper than what you paid at Bursons, $62 from memory. Have them at home, they came pretty quick but I do live not far away from the distribution point.

              I'm just coming up to 5 yrs / 115,000km on the originals & they are still doing the job properly.

              Used to change the blades in my previous cars every 12 months.
