The dimensions of the blades responsible for clearing the front glass on a specific vehicle model from a particular year are critical for maintaining optimal visibility. These measurements ensure complete and effective clearing of rain, snow, and debris, contributing directly to driver safety. An incorrect specification can lead to areas of the windshield remaining uncleared, potentially obstructing the driver’s view.
Properly sized replacements are paramount for maximizing the effectiveness of the system. Historically, vehicles have utilized various blade lengths and attachment mechanisms. Adhering to the manufacturer’s recommended specifications ensures compatibility with the vehicle’s wiping system, preserving its intended performance and extending the life of the blades themselves. Furthermore, using the correct dimensions prevents potential damage to the wiper motor and linkage system.
