    Monowiper guys: what size wiper do you use?

    What length wiper do you guys use to get maximum coverage?

        I'll check when I get home. I know it's a Bosch wiper.

            Here is a pic of ACS wiper arm with blade and arm measurements. I do have a Schneller mono wiper. I don't have my car by me to take measurements.

            The ACS dual blade measured 24". The arm with blade 28 1/4".

            The other one is a Hartge arm.
            The blade measurement is 19 3/4". Blade and arm is 26"

                  Just checked my blade and its 20" Im going to get one a little bit longer to get more coverage. I have about an inch in both directions I can go. Mine is a DIY converted mono wiper that does a full 180* sweep

                            I made one for my e28. It's really simple. Mine is more of a 160-170 degree sweep. I got tired of fucking with it.

                            Gonna make ones for the e30s too.

                            No DD, no care.
