are Oval wipers different to 60's?
i bought some wipers to replace the ones that flew off on the way to Nationals and they seem to not fit right and hit the windscreen rubber and make
marks on it. i noticed some wiper blads r bigger than others?
can someone let me know
thanks

Yes, the Oval's have a shorter blade...
