Can anyone help please? I've just taken delivery of a new rear wiper blade for my 53 Octavia 1.8T from wiperblades.co.uk. I followed their vehicle search links and the rear wiper came out as a 13" but when I've come to fit it, it looks a good 2-3" shorter. Is this the correct length? The bloke (very helpful and promised to send a new one if I fitted them and they didn't work) said Skoda rear blades went up to 16" in 2005 so i wonder if someone fitted a 16" to mine instead of the standard 13". I know this a boring topic/question but I'd love to know. Cheers

When browsing through the catalogues I have nearby the rear blade is 400 millimetres or 15.74 inches so a 13" blade sounds very short indeed?

That's for the hatch - the rear blade for the estate is 330 millimetres or 13"

That's what happened then. They've given me the estate version instead of the hatchback. Thanks for your reply
