HK-HT/HG wipers: are the sizes the same? -

[timmyj23]

as the heading implies: are the sizes of the HK wipers the same as those released on HT/HG models? I know the cowls are slightly different, but are the wiper lengths?

Cheers, urgent,

Going from rusty memory, they're the same.

They sure are mate. Windscreens are all the same in all three models as well as the wiper arms.

Althought they used the same length blade i think, the HK used a different system/blade to the HT/G.
THe HK had a fixed blade that attached to the arm via a slot on the top.

The HT/G blade attached to the arm via a pin on the side, and also had an extra articulated arm on the drivers side that pivoted the blade so that it swept close to and parallel to the drivers side pillar.
The cowl pivot was also closer to the pillar on the HT/G than the HK.
