I ended up with the missed spot on the passenger side. Just put the stock blade back on. on that side and changed the rubbers out with the new one. Good enough lol

My Pass side misses at the end where the windshield is really curved, but that doesn't effect anything since I can't really even see it while I'm in the car. The best thing I've found, is every time you're at the gas station, just take the complimentary washer/squeegee and run the foam down each side of the blade and then wipe it off with the paper towel. LOTS of black oxidized rubber and dirt will come off, and they'll work great for much longer.

It may be a little off topic, but I was just wondering..
I have a problem with my wipers not going all the way back down when I turn them off. Say you turn your wipers on but where they pause for a while before they go again.. well thats where mine go when I turn them all the way off.
Every now and then the will pull back down like they're supposed to do, but that hardly ever happens.. I've never messed with wipers, other than swapping blades, so I'm not real familiar with them.
thanks for the help.

Really all you need to do is take them off and put a good coat of rain-x on the windshield. with the angle it sits at the rain just flys right off ot it. and it cheaper than wipers.
