What size of window wiper blade do you have?

Post by goufcustom »

I'm planning to get a frameless window wiper blades and realised that my MR-S has odd sizes!!

Passanger side has 500mm(Frame size) then wiper is 700mm,

Driver side has 700mm(Frame size) then wiper is 900mm

What is correct size for best result?

And does frameless wiper blades does better job than normal blades? Is it easy to replace refill later on?

If you mean frameless like these:

http://www.redlineperformance.co.nz/pro ... er-blades/

I think they are just for looks and may require an expensiver blade, can't just be for looks though as they are found on a lot of Euro cars (German design = must be quality)

My blades were like 18" but trimmed to fit my stock sw20 wipers

I'm going to upgrade to frameless too, not happy with old and crusty and my SCA blades.
