Rear window wiper blades

[Vanlady]

I have tried unsuccessfully to source a silicone wiper blade for the rear window of my T32 Petrol TSI Kombi Highline window van 1984cc ( 2018 ). Please can anyone help me with finding this and for the front wipers which I will need in the future? Are there any silicone refills available? My current ones are rubber.

I think that most people fit Bosch Aero Twins.

Not silicone, but better than the ones VW use and last about 3 times as long.

Thanks for your reply. It seems that I shall have to use others as I simply cannot find any! Strange?

I've just put Bosch on mine. I'd not heard of silicon wiper blades until I saw this post!

They are expensive but good and, apparently, last a lot longer. The windscreen is prepared with contents of a sachet ( included ) and the wiper applies a little silicon
each time it moves. They seem to be common enough for other vehicles! See PIA ones.
