What windscreen wipers do I need to get? Look mini or MG Midget size?

Got the standard Lucas mini wiper motor and track setup.

I'm pretty sure they are mini ones, although I must say I think the wipers are more of a IVA/ decoration piece rather than anything to do with clearing water from the screen, if mine are anything to go by.

10" or 11" or does matter? Later mini's had 11" wipers and the blades that are available are far better than the earlier 10" items.

Short ones are better. Long ones lift off the curve of the screen near the "tax disc".
As said, neither do very much, just drive faster & sweep it over the top.

Long ones...
