I have an issue with the blades staying in contact with the windshield at highway speeds (anything over 65ish). But, I use rain-x blades, and regularly rain-x the windshield. So at that speed, I really don't need the wipers anyway.

I am curious if the "Areo" kit sold at ECS help keep the blades stuck to the windshield (better designed arms?).

 

how do you have a prolem? i use the rain-x latitudes and have never had a problem even at ~80 or so.

 

I seemed to have problems with bracketless wipers at lower speeds, not enough wind force to push them to the glass maybe? Anyway, I always buy the second to last cheapest blades and they always work great, especially like the winter ones. My 2 cents.

 

I have the same setup and I have the same problem, currently trying to figure out a cheap solution before winter.

 

Not sure... it's the speed for sure though, and always right about 65... Love the wipers though. They work great under 65.

 

did you readjust the mooting points on the rain x connectors? i nhad to move them when installing because they hit the arm? they r the **** for sure. what exactly is the aero kit? is it like the lats at all?

 

It's a redesigned wiper arm and stuff. In theory, the air passing over the arms pushes the wiper to the windshield. The problem I have is the air lifting the blade. It did it with the wipers I had before the lats too.

 

Who has the aero's and can confirm they work?

 

I can. They work lovely on my B6s. I never did get around to putting them on my B5, since it's for sale now.

The aero's are expensive, though. I paid about $120 for the kit to convert my Avant to Aeros.

 

you should of saved that money for a manual car XD

where do you get them dealer? ecs?
