I often have small questions that don't need an entire thread devoted to them. On other forums, the "small questions" threads are really great for those.
If you have a small question, post it here and maybe someone has the answer.

Can anyone recommend a windshield wiper that doesn't tap the cowl? I have modern Bosch wipers. They look cool, but I think they are wider at the tip than what was originally spec'd on the car. So, when on the high wiper speed, it taps the cowl, "tap, tap, tap, tap, tap..."
I've confirmed that mine are the correct size. I've tried to reorient the wiper arm by removing it then rotating it one notch, but then it's too high. Maybe there's a way to micro-adjust the angle of the wiper ams?

Have you checked for play in the linkage, bushings, or hardware under the cowl?

Here is the issue (see pic).
I think I may just buy the same wiper but one size shorter for the passenger side.

You can buy a specific wiper from FCP with the curve for our cars… ask me how I know.

Here's is where it gets confusing. The Bosch book at Napa has 22" for both sides. ECS Tuning has 22" on both sides for OEM blades (look at that price, lol).
I'm gonna order this set.
But, I do think a 22"/21" set from Napa would work, too.
I'm gonna order this set.
Here's the Amazon link. 21"/22" wiper set
