so i hear you all asking. whats it from? how much?
well itll cost you about a tenner and the wiper is already on your cor :shock: this is the stock wiper filled with some fibreglass re-enforced filler and then color coded

josh, was not the first in the world, i can assure you that, but he did a very good job making them on his own.

We were talking about putting a 9N REAR Aero Wiper on a 6N2 GTi.

I know you were the first in the world with the fronts mate!

I was the first in the UK with the fronts though.

Respect to you!

right lets clear this up
I understand that JOSH was the fist person (to my knowledge) in the world to sucessfully get the 9N rear wiper on the 6N2 i understand that the FRONTS have been fitted (although if were on about stock parts then thats possibly a world first) before but never the rear
so please could you show me pictures of theese other aero wipers that you speak of because i cant recall seeing any so please enlighten me, because i love to be proooved wrong
also please dont make josh sound like the culprit as it was my "error" about it if you wish to report an error in MY post then please take it up with me as last time i checked jost did not write my posts (edit maybe but not write :P)
as i mentioned above i am now waiting on pics so the ball is in your court

No need to panik guys, it was not that serious.
But i have my aero whipers on the front not the back (because i have removed the wiper at the back) already a good year so...
Btw Josh you did a very good job your self (i had help), respect that man.
Conclusion: i was the first on the front, josh at the back

@polo2k you want pics, you got pics

If not clear enough, just ask, than i take tomorow a pic up close

Btw, it was not my intention to offend anybody just wanted to say that Josh was not the first in the world (for the front wipers) thats all folks.
