Wiper blade sizes
 

I just bought new wiper blades for my 04HCH by using the lookup-book at Target. They said 19" for passenger and 24" for driver side. The 19 matches the old one, but it looks like my driver side had a 21 on it before. The 24 seems to work fine, and it covers the glass to the limit on both ends without hanging over, but I still wonder what the official size is supposed to be.

Hmmm, I just looked it up at tire rack, and they say 21 for the driver side. Maybe the book at Target was whacked, or maybe I just read it wrong. Looks like the 24 will still work anyway. Oh well.

Ok, I went back to target and confirmed that their book does say 24", but I traded it in for a 21 and it is a better fit. I don't know why the spec such a long one in that book, but I think it's wrong.

Perhaps this will be a solo thread... Sorry to waste space on a conversation with myself. :-)

Looks like lots of people read it anyway!

I even found it useful. Thanks for letting us know. Most of us might have just gone with the 24" blades.

Would be nice to know what the OEM sizes are as I ran into the same problem. I just replaced mine and what I bought are 21/19. The 21 is clearly smaller than what I had previously and the 19 looks like it kind of hangs over the outboard side of the windshield.

Not to mention that whatever I bought seems to pretty much work worse than the older blades I replaced. I'll be trying to return them tonight, but wanted to double check the sizing. The larger blade I had previously was likely the 24 and definitely covered more glass.
