Driver's side wiper length

The length of the main wiper. In pair sets (see "Quantity per package"), it is indicated for a wiper intended for installation in front of the driver's seat. If there is only one wiper in the kit, then it is considered the main one, regardless of the purpose and place of the intended installation.

This parameter is one of the key when choosing: usually, the recommended wiper length is indicated by the car manufacturer.

Mount

Mounting type used by the wiper. Detailed data on the design and operation of different types of fasteners can be found in special sources. Here we note a few key points.

Firstly, many automakers use different fasteners in different car models, and even the same type of fasteners can have varieties (available in several sizes). Secondly, there are adapters between different types; however, they should only be used in the most extreme cases, since the effectiveness of the wipers is usually reduced with this installation. Thirdly, some wiper models are initially equipped with universal adapters; such mounts are more effective than third-party adapters, but are more difficult to install than “native” ones, and still do not provide the same high-quality work.

Now on the market there are such types of mounts: Bayonet, Hook(main size 9x4), Hook 8x3, Hook 9x3, Hook 12x4, Pinch tab, Push button(main size 19mm), Narrow Push button (16mm), Wide Push button (22mm), Side pin(main size 22mm), Side pin (17mm), Top lock, Claw (Claw),...Pin Lock, Side Mounting, Сover Lock (MBTL1.1/GWB045), Cap Lock (VATL5.1/GWB046), Guide Lock (DNTL1.1/GWB044).
