    I went for the full California set-up as I like the wipers completely out of sight

    I tried a couple local (Sydney) Bursons outlets and none had stock. I still haven't received a reply from Bosch Australia...

    My Bosch Aerotwins arrived from the UK yesterday. Sad but typical when you can receive product from the other side of the planet faster than a reply from the local distributor...
    G'day Multiplex Man, the full wiper set up would certainly be nicer. FYI the Burson outlets I tried were in Richmond (Melbourne) and Ferntree Gully (Melbourne).

    Cheers,

    I picked up the arms from VW locally. They were cheaper from VW UK but the freight cost made it equal.

    Multiplex Man, I picked up the blades this morning. 600mm length each side. The arms on the Mulltivan look quite OK anyway. Wonder if they are the same ones as the California? Have you got a picture of the California ones you got?

    Cheers,

    Scott

    Folks,

    I fitted my new Aerotwins last night, so all good.

    It seems that most Multivans (Highline and Comfortline) prior to 2008 had aeros as standard - judging by a search of all vehicles on Carsales. My Multivan is May 2008 and didn't! Worse still, if you are buying a newy (Highline and Comfortline) no aeros either!

    Cheers,

    Scott

    I'm after a set of front Bosch Aerotwins for a 06 Multivan, and ebay uk lists two different part numbers, AM24U/AM24U and A939S. Can anyone confirm which is the correct part?

    Why not just go to VW and get genuine rubber refills? I have the original holders on my Golf and went to the stealer and got Bosch aero refills for only $10 each at trade for the front and 16 for the whole rear blade...

    I've used aerotwins on previous cars and nothing comes close, not even the standard bosch rubber.

    Just ordered 2 pair from the UK via Ebay. $96 AU delivered and I don't have to drive all over Nth QLD looking for them. I also ordered two pair of rear blades for $45 AU delivered as well.
    I'm in no rush either as I'm away from home still.

    Best wishes all.

    Ken - Do you have the eBay seller for the rear wiper blades? I need to replace mine...
