08 Yaris Rear Wipers [also 08 RAV4] - Toyota Yaris Forums

How well does the new one that you put on make contact with the window. I recently purchased new rear ones for two of my Yaris and found that the aftermarket ones that I purchased (which were the complete wiper assembly, instead of just refills) don't have exactly the same curvature to them as the OEM ones, so they miss the outer 2-3" of the swipe. I ended up pulling the blades out of the new ones and installing it in the arm of the OEM ones, and now have the complete swipe back. If I remember correctly the ones that I bought were Dayco brand.
