Detailed Product Description

This blade includes pre-attached adapters compatible with cross pin, roc lock 4, and v notch connection types, simplifying installation on specific rear wiper arms. The 13-inch length is tailored for rear windows on vehicles such as the Audi A3 Quattro, BMW 530i, Genesis GV80, Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Telluride, Land Rover Defender series, Volkswagen Golf, and Volvo XC60, among others.
