 They shipped 21" blades, bigger than I had on before.  The driver side is
 fine, however the passenger side is a couple inches too long.  Blau says
 thats what Audi says.  Are they supposed to be symetrical? Has a previous
 owner installed wrong size arms?  What you all think?

I just came back in from measuring mine (85 4Ksq) and the arms are ~16" and
the blades are 21".  The passenger side is just a tad long in the park
position and will not lay down on the glass all the time.  But I get a heck of
a good clear visual area when it rains.
