Aero wipers help???

Ok, I searched first...

My stock wipers (almost 2.5 years old) are worn out and I need to get new ones, but I'm considering to get the aero wipers.
For the aero wipers I have these parts #:
Aero Wiper Arm A 203 820 27 44
Aero Wiper Arm A 203 820 32 44
Aero Wiper Blade A 203 820 15 45
Aero Wiper Blade A 203 820 10 45
Aero Wiper Cap A 203 820 07 49
Aero Wiper Cap A 203 820 05 49

Can anyone confirm this please?
What the extimated price for the aero wiper cap? (I got all the other parts prices)

See Garage
You might do a search... I think you can buy the Aero blade assemblies directly from Bosch that don't require replacement of the arm and other parts. The aero blade inserts use the standard arms, etc. and at a cheaper price than through MB.

I have a friend who bought them via the internet for his VW Passat. No dealer or OEM parts required.

I changed my mind and was searching for the blades only, a lot cheaper, but I realized that the old wiper arms with the aero blades won't look that nice
Aero wipers comimg soon

En route

I ordered the Trico Innovisions 2 days ago and will hopefully receive them soon.

FYI, someone posted a link to Midway Auto Supply, which had a good price. Something like $40 for 2 blade shipped.

New Bosch Icon

I saw in Motor Trend that Bosch has some new wipers called the ICON but they steer you to www.boschusa.com and provide no further information on them at this point. Maybe they will put some info up soon.

Ok so I went looking for new wiper blades yesterday. Autozone had the Bosch ICONs for $20 each. Unfortunately, the way they attatch is different then stock. So they didnt work. It was like 20 degrees and very windy so I didnt feel like sitting out there and trying to make them work, so I returned them.
