i want some for my polo, but need to know if they are a straight swap, and also if its the just the blade that gets changed or the blade and the arm too...

cheers

I PM'd Speedlaw about this last week.
You'll need a pair of passenger side wiper arms from a Lupo GTi plus the driver and passenger blades. I believe vagparts do a complete conversion kit for the 6N. However, he did say they are a pain to get to work right. I think it'd be a trial and error job.
Bosch do a Aero blade set for the 6N but it looks sh!te.
Hope this helps chap, hopefully next month when funds permit i'll be doing the swap myself.

yeh that helps alot thanks mate, i think i might wait untill you've done yours then to see how hard and how much hassle they are to fit

wasnt there a vag groupbuy on the kits not so long ago?

I did the same a few years ago after the lupo GTI had them.
Just buy the complete normal aero wiper set from the lupo gti.
i mean the driverwiper from the lupo as the driverwiper on the polo and also the passenger wiper from the Lupo GTi for the passnger Wiper on the Polo....straight swap.
I have a LHD, so itÂ´s just the same on RHD Polos.

It fits very very good.

Cheers

how much are the lupo arms and blades to buy?

Is this just a style mod - or are they quieter on the motorways?
