Rear Wiper Blade Bosch A360H Installation Report
I changed my rear wiper to a Bosch A360H on my 958 (2014 Cayenne GTS). On first glance, I didn't think it would fit, as the A360H is slightly longer than the stock blade. However, Bosch claimed it worked per their website so I gave it a try. The blade snaps right in, wipes excellent and cleans more glass than the stock blade. It doesn't bang into anything. It clears the top edge by a narrow margin. I wonder if warm weather expansion will change this but so far so good.

Since we are talking wipers ...
Checked the Bosch site, and it seems there is no compatibility for the front wipers on my 2013 Cayenne. Went to local parts store, and they confirmed standard Bosch wipers are not listed for Cayenne, and requires a model specific wiper, and that I would not be happy with the fit of some generic wiper.
Since Porsche dealer is 45min through traffic across town, tried the VW dealer around the corner. Touareg wipers were IDENTICAL to the original Porsche wipers, and $40 for both fronts! Although packaging says VW, search on part number (7P0-998-002) reveals they are made by Bosch.
