Default Wiper Blades

Does anyone know what wiper blades actually fit a 2011 Jetta?

Tried Trico or Bosch and neither fit! Tried RainX and that one didn't fit either. The adapter is impossible to find.

The book and mechanic told me that all three brands would fit and they didn't. This shouldn't be so hard... what's going on?

I've just check the VW price for mine 2010 Golf.

Aero wiper blade (drivers side) 600mm - 5K1 955 425 - £18.36
Aero wiper blade (passenger side) 481mm - 5K1 955 426 - £18.36

Thats showing the same for USA only those have a colour Rally Black.

2012 Jetta USA - Wiper blade with guide paddle (drivers side) 530mm Bosch - 3A1 955 425 - £17.81
2012 Jetta USA - Wiper blade with guide paddle (passenger side) 475mm Bosch - 6N0 955 425 A - £14.20

2012 Jetta USA - Wiper blade with wear indicator (drivers side) 530mm Valeo - 3A1 955 427 - £18.29
2012 Jetta USA - Wiper blade with wear indicator (passenger side) 475mm Valeo - 6N0 955 425 A - £14.20

Same part number as the Bosch but Bosch has a guide paddle and Valeo has a wear indictor.

Google the part numbers.

Thanks.

I'll try that out. I'm in Canada. I went to one of our major parts retailers (Canadian Tire) and they're the ones who directed me to the three incorrect sizes. Strange--they were just going by what's in their database.

I guess I'll just order them online with the parts numbers you indicated. Although, it scares me a bit b/c returning online orders can be difficult, if for some reason they don't fit either.

when the suggestions are being set, rest is up to you to move forward with it as far as the risk factor is concerned, it is really worth to be taken care of
