Which blade goes where on the 3 Series F30

UK cars are right-hand drive, so the driver's blade is the right-hand one as you face the car — 24", and the passenger blade on the left is 19".

The front arms take a Pinch tab fitting: check the pack says that fitting, or that the blade's adapter set includes it. Length alone is not enough — a blade that is the right size but the wrong fitting will not clip on.

Watch for left-hand-drive sets: some Bosch and Valeo twin-packs sold on Amazon.co.uk are the European LHD pairing (longer blade on the left). If the two lengths are the wrong way round for this car, it is an LHD set.
