    Kl that should make it a hall of a lot faster. I know someone who got one chipped he said he was sad he waited so long before it.

    yes but if youv been good and not claimed in a few years they might be a little bit more kind and should hit you for too much more. You can always phone up and check how much extra it would be.

    For a start there's no such thing as "Genuine" Audi wipers. They're made by a sub contractor who is most probably Chinese and they'll be as good as the ones Shebhoyt bought from Lidl for a lot less.

    As for going to the garage to get a pair of wipers fitted...* *, have a word mate. It's a couple of plastic clips and 5 minutes of your life. It shouldn't have cost £43 but being honest, you asked for it.
