Audi owners BB??

Is there an Audi owners BB? similar to PP? I have a 2003 Audi Avant A6 and I want find some place where I can buy wiper blades that don't cost an arm and a leg. This may sound silly but I have tried all the local and national parts stores in my area but to no avail, only the dealer has them an they want something on the high side of $50 for two blades. They are Bosch blades and the info in the parts stores say Bosch 422A is the model but I'll be damned if I can figure out how they go in the arm. The end of the arm is entirely different from the refills I bought.

Anyone else experience the same situation or am I just looking in the wrong places?

Thanks

Isn't there a special black Audi forum?

I don't need the black forum, just f------ wiper blades. Who would have thought that you couldn't get blades from the auto parts stores. I wouldn't have bought the car if I had known this was the situation, guess I'll have to go with duc tape and gorilla glue to solve the problem.

I did go to the audiforum and strangely, other owners have experienced similar situation. Just stupid.

Not a problem. I've just been trying to find these things for a while and finally got some but no go. Not your fault, I usually enjoy the humor, it's just that this $60 wiper problem ain't funny any more. I may have to go to the car lot and do a little midnight auto if I can't get them at a reasonable price. I just can't believe Bosch doesn't make one that is sold through parts stores.

I actually understand the funny gruppeb stuff and black audi story and expected to get some shlt about this post. From the audi forum, it looks like I'm not alone.

Are these what you are after? http://catalog.importpartsbin.com/?year=2003&make=AU&search_button2222.x=24&search_button2222.y=23


Edit: sorry link did not work all the way to the blades. Just click on your model, then click on "body electrical", then click on wiper blades.

Look similar, I'm stopping by the place where I bought the new ones Bosch 422A's as they say they will put them on for me. Actually offered to do that when I paid for them but I was in too much of a rush.

Thanks for all the guidance. I'll post an answer if I ever find one.
