Default Rear wiper size for a 1994

I see three sizes listed on the application charts:

11"
12"
18"

I think I can safely eliminate the 18"

But what about 11" vs 12"?

I bought my XJ without an arm. I just got one yesterday and installed it. I don't know what the stock size is. After some measuring, it looks like you could put a 20" on there. I will try an 18" blade.

No way on the 18". It rides up over the gasket and painted part of the hatch.

My 97 I believe was 13... Maybe 11 but I'm pretty sure it was 13.

Older models came with a 12" or 11" from the factory, but a 13" will fit on all XJs and they are easy to find. 12" and especially 11" can be difficult to come by these days.
