wiper blade size??
can someone tell me the size of the driver's side blade? my boxster s came with 2 22" blades on it, which seems right for the passenger but too big for the driver side. i would order the pair here but am leaving for a road trip tomorrow and need to swing by an auto parts store for the correct blade.
thanks! |

That sounds right, 22" on both sides. Your Porsche dealer should stock plenty of them as well since its the same for all Boxster years I believe if you would feel more comfortable going that route.

hmm, strange. my driver side wiper overlaps the top rubber windshield seal when it wipes all the way left. doesn't seem normal...
maybe the PO replaced the arm with the wrong size? can someone confirm that the blade shouldn't overlap the rubber seal? thanks for the quick response. |

well here's a good one... turns out the arms were reversed -- driver and passenger side switched. had a hunch, checked the part numbers stamped on the arms and sure enough. gotta love some previous owners...
