Important: In most modern models, the vehicle wiper on the driver side is longer than one on the passenger side — this provides a larger area for cleaning the windshield.

Rules for the selection of wipers:

When replacing wiper blades, the following parameters and characteristics must be considered:

Type of wiper mount (hook, bayonet mount, wide hook, side lock, top lock, thin top lock, pinch tab);
Wiper length;
Region for which the vehicle is manufactured (USA, Europe, Japan, Asia, etc.).

Important: an important characteristic of the quality of the wipers' work is the area of glass that they clean from dirt, however, the length of wipers is determined by the body structure of vehicle and has a limit, exceeding which can lead to contact between the wipers.
