Where do you get your replacement wiper blades?
I bought a set of Bosch refills from Auto Advance. I installed them without a problem, however, I find these wipers make a helluva racket. I thought Bosch is a top of the line brand.
What wipers have TT owners here found to be reasonably priced, work silently, and last for at least 6 months? I went to TTStuff, and I see the Bosch and pricier brands. However, the really weird thing is that at the top of the page they indicate the size requirements, including the fact that the passenger side is curved, and yet nowhere in the wiper blade items is there any indication of a curved blade. What's the deal?

I picked up a set a the PIAA silicones from TTStuff and yes the passenger blade is curved
They indicate on the top of the page which ones to get. 21" for drivers side and 21" curved for passenger for the TT. I go the 21" spoiler for my drivers side and the regular 21" curved for the passenger side. Fit's great!

Thanks for the advice
I should have realized that the dealer will replace them upon request during the warranty period. I'll add that to the list. :-)
But it's good to know of a few alternatives. I see what you're saying, Joe--only two of the blades listed mention "curved", so that's why I missed it. At $21 a piece, how long do these PIAA Silicone wipers last? I hope for at least a year!
