Just in contrast I have a "aero" blades from the dreaded fleabay.
24" drivers and 23" passenger; they work perfectly. The tip of the passenger one just about touches the windscreen frame or back corner of the bonnet when parked, depending exactly how you adjust it when fitting. Operating is fine, no slapping or missed areas. There are many different designs of aero blades with a lot of variation in the size of the end pieces, though most only protrude slightly beyond the end of the blade. Mine are larger than some but not a problem. I've been using aero blades on my Focus for ages and as the blades were very similar sizes initially just tried one on the (old) Audi, with excellent results so switched over. I haven't binned the OEM 22" arms/blades though, they will go back on if/when I dispose of it.

I wouldn't buy cheap or non branded wipers either.
HPsauce, 24 & 23, I'm not surprised, I've had 22'' and thought they are just about fine until I got a pair of 24'' and now they are perfect, but thats on D3 tho
