You can get the OEM ones from VW. Bosch also sells OE style clip in wipers for the Jetta.

Picked up some Bosch Icons. Loved them on my truck, and had them on my GTI for 6 months (then traded in). Never had any issues with them. Best ive ever used.
I've had good experience with the Bosch distance plus filters.
Alternators can be rebuilt. YMMV of course, but I rebuilt the Bosch alternator on my old Mk1 VW Rabbit several times (brush would wear down) with no issues.
I personally have Bosch ##CA blades (## = inches), and they've been working well for me so far.
I replaced it with a Duralast Gold. After replacing the issue still existed so I replaced the alternator with an OEM Bosch remanufactured unit.
replaced it with a Bosch water pump and that thing is still going strong. Great warranty, too
I use Bosch QuietCast brake pads. Never had a problem and work great.
So i did this today with 3amp 400 piv diode and at idle i was charging at 14 and when i revved it was pegging at 16V, is this overkill? I dont want to drive around and kill my electrical system Click to expand... YES, very much overkill. So is the guy above that was putting out 13.9 and and now 14.7. Anything over 14.1 is usless and asking for trouble. Guys, this is a great mod, in fact i'm using the adjustable in my Corrado now and have it set to 14.1. However, if your already putting out close to that voltage than this is a waste of time. If your putting out 13.1 to 13.4 then i'd say go for it. Remember though to check it with the throttle raised and make sure your safe. Anyone leaveing their alternators pumping out 16v with the throttle up a bit, i'll give it a week and your battery will start to smell of rotten eggs. Then you've got dangerous problems on your hands.
I installed the Bosch pump and a new fuel filter. 50 miles later the Bosch pump died. I was not beating on the car. Just cruising down the street doing 30 or so and bam, no power. I was able to return it and get my money back.
