Hello,

I just purchased two replacement bosch aerotwins BBA650 and BBA450. When I filled the BBA650 it's perfect but the BBA450 appears to be too long and hitting the outside seal of the window.

I measured the wiper that came off and it is 430ish... So looks like BBA450 is the wrong size but when I checked the Bosch website 450mm is the correct size?

I have read on the forum that maybe the BBA400 is better suited?

Just want to find out what everyone else is using before I go out and buy a BBA400 to have another issue.

Thanks everyone for your time.

My left wiper blade is 400 mm in length and it is good. You don't want to go amy smaller as it might produce a gap between the left and right as it cleans the windscreen.

yeah i'm using the BBA400, i bought the 450 first time around based on the Bosch recommendation and had to return it

the 650 with the 400 gives a very good coverage compared to OEM IMO

Great, thanks for that. I'll buy the BBA400!

I wish I saw this thread on the weekend.

I bought a 450mm for the passenger side as per Trico's instructions and it was way too long. I measured my old one and it was 400mm. Went back to Repco and changed it for a 400mm.
