"Hi Ya everyone...  I know this post is a little old by now, sorry.
  I have tried the bosch wiper that are similar to this valeo model, and i have had a couple of problems.  Depending on the design differences of the valeo wiper one will never run into the problems i did.
  The bosch icon wiper is great.  I really like them on my girlfriends A4, and on my passenger side wiper.  On the drivers of the van the spray nozzel fires directly at the mounting bracket.  I tried to adjust the the spray nozzel and the end effect was that it sprayed to high on the window to be useful.  So, i only got windsheild washer fluid on the window while the wiper was almost all the way through it up movement...
  The other issue is the fact that the wipers little areo wing deflected to much wind when it was all the way up.  Thus when the wiper returned back to the down postion it drag water halfway through its movement, and across my the viewing field.
  So now i have a bosch micro edge on the driver side and a bosch icon on the passenger side.  It probably looks a little funny, but works really great!!

I concur that the Bosch Icons look cool, but that the Bosch Micro-Edge works better on a Vanagon.  I have the same problem with the washer nozzle spraying water directly onto the wiper.  No matter how I try to adjust it, it hits the wiper or goes too high.  I'll switch back to the Micro-Edge in the spring.
