Anyone knows the lengths of CX-7 wiper blades?
Left / Right Front?
Rear?
Thanks!

I did not see it in the manual. I usually use the store's automated guide. We got RainX blades last time, they work great.

Funny you asked...
I just bought a set of RainX blades for the front (forgot I had a rear blade :rolleyes: )
Driver Side = 26"
Passenger Side = 16"
EDIT: Rear = 14"
The RainX brand fit without need for the included adapters. It rained the next day - so I know they work great. While you're out getting them, pick up the RainX window cleaner stuff for the outside. It is amazing how the rain beads up and blows up and over the windshield while driving. Works especially well on our low drag coefficient, huge windshields.
Only "issue" I'd say is the bracet / frames holding the blades isn't as beefy looking as stock - I tried to swap the blades into the stock bracet / frame - but they're not quite wide enough to fit. Oh well, at least they aren't plastic and cheap looking.
Will buy the RainX brand again.

I finally got a rear blade (also RainX) and although the stocker is 14", you can easily fit a 17" in there - possibly even an 18".
The problem though is the stock clip is a tiny bit too wide for the metal frame on the RainX blades, so you'll need to trim it down ever so slightly. You also need to take off the adaptor from the RainX blade to make it fit.
