Retro fit Aero Wipers...

Right, this is something I pondered for a while, then took the dive with these: http://www.wiperblades.co.uk/wiper-blad ... =prod-info
They're much better at clearing the water than regular efforts :D However, I've noticed that in speeds over about 60mph (depending on windspeed etc.) the drivers side wiper lifts off the screen a bit, giving me a section conveniently in front of my line of sight that doesn't get cleared :( Question is whether there's anything I can do about it? I've tried switching the blades over, which doesn't make much of a difference. Bending the wiper arm so it holds the wiper more firmly against the windscreen does a little, but not much....
Would it be worth investing in something a little more expensive? Bearing in mind the age old saying 'you get what you pay for'....

Get the VW retrofit ones. Part number is 6N2 998 002

They are made by bosch and are much better quality
