Hi Guys I know the factory size for the zs wiper is 20" and 18", I have had a look and am not sure if I can get away with a 19" on the passenger side without it catching?

Many Thanks

I use 22/20 with no bother I think. Catches on the DS at full speed but its not that often

On my 120 I put 22" on the drivers side and 20" on the passenger side as I felt that 20",18" combo didn't clear enough on the windscreen
The passenger side rubbed slightly.
I would say 19" would be fine.
The 20" would be ok if you were to trim some plastic off the end of the wiper blade

Thank you for the quick replies:

I should be ok with 21" on the drivers and 19" on the passenger side? I will also check the clearance when I get home :)

Just to confirm I have purchased the Bosch Aerotwin blades from Eurocarparts 21" Drivers and 19" for the passenger side. Tested without catching, I would say this is the limit for the windscreen! I did this before to my previous ZS 180 and dads but has been a while! One of those things you do and forget lol
