What is wrong with this picture?

Postby wayne » Tue 20.11.2012, 21:18

When I first bought my car I noticed that the previous owner had changed the windscreen wipers to the modern low profile blades and 1 was alot shorter than the other.
So now that it's winter time here and we finally got some rain last night I decided to change the blades over.

Thanks to BCN I got a set of new 22" Lotus blades but they seemed too long and snagged each other ?? So I bought some 20" blades.... The drivers side blade still hits the roof??

Been trying to work out what the problem was and then finally tonight it dawned on me :oops: I've only had the car just over 1 year :bonk:

I guess that the local stray cat foot / butt prints are not the only thing wrong with this picture :oops: :banghead:

Are the wiper arms the correct way around ie foil should be in front of the driver.
