Exclamation Wiper blades for Audi A8 D3

So, maybe a silly topic, but it may help someone with getting it right on the first time

I thought I will just share the light on fitting type and sizes after after spending almost £70 just to fit new wiper blades, doh.
I couldn't find any info here, only for D2s, so there you go.

After getting it wrong with Bosch blades I went with Lucas Clearvison blades only because shop assured me that this is the correct fitting and they had nothing in 24'' size from AeroTwins

>>> 2003 - 2008
Fit: Direct fit
Length: 24'' (both)

>>> 2009 on
Fit: Push Button Fit
Length: 27'' & 21''

In regards to length on 2003-2008 D3s
For 3 years I had 22'' or 23'' blades fitted and there was nothing wrong with them, but during the recent purchase I realised that they should be 24'' and they fit well.
But if you have 23'' blades they will do the job no problem

I fitted Lucas ClearVision LWDF24C
