Default Wiper Position As Per Bentleys - Does this look right?

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/104282/wiper.jpg"></center><p>
After doing some re-alignment work on the wiper system and enjoying a sleeker look without wipers on the car... I had to put them back on a few days ago when rain was forecast.

I followed Bentley's to the T (give or take a few mm's)... 26mm from top of plastic cowl to wiper on passenger's side, 45mm on driver's side.

Now I know it did not look like this previously, they appeared more parallel... but is the Bentley's correct and dealers are just putting them on wrong or what?

By the way, apologize for the dirty hood... tomorrow is detailing day!

Default Work fine.

Though I might re-adjust them so that the verticals parts of the passenger arm and aero part of the driver blade are a little more parallel.

I suspect in most cases dealers are putting them on "wrong". Upon delivery I somehow doubt most dealers would sit there with a ruler and actually line them up.
