Nissan Micra Wiper Blade Size & Fitting Guide (2017-2024)
Wiper Blade Sizes
Front blade lengths and arm fitting for the Nissan Micra, taken from the Bosch and Valeo entries in the TecDoc-derived parts catalogue. Catalogues publish a front set as two lengths and do not state which blade belongs on the driver’s arm of a right-hand-drive car, so this table labels the blades by length rather than by side. Measure the blade you are replacing, or check both arms, before you order.
| Position | Blade length | Arm fitting |
|---|---|---|
| Front pair | 650 mm / 25.6 in + disputed short blade: 340 mm / 13.4 in on the flagged for left-hand drive Bosch entries, 350 mm / 13.8 in on the flagged for right-hand drive Valeo entry | Hook (9×3 / 9×4) |
| Rear | No data available | — |

Confidence in this data: Medium. The left-hand drive/right-hand drive short-blade discrepancy (340 vs 350) is real in the data, not a typo.
Checked against: Autodoc Micra V K14
What Fitting Type?
Catalogue fitting for the Nissan Micra: Standard hook (9×3/9×4 J-hook) — the one car in this batch where a hook-fit retrofit blade is the correct answer
Adapter note. The Bosch set listed for this car is an Aerotwin Retrofit (AR-prefix), which uses the universal 9×3 / 9×4 hook adapter and fits any standard hook arm.
Right-hand drive. At least one supplier publishes a distinct right-hand-drive part number for this vehicle. On a UK car the blades sweep the opposite way to a left-hand-drive car, and the profile and stops differ, so buy the part the catalogue flags for right-hand drive where one exists — the references below say which.
Fit blades in pairs. Both front blades age at the same rate, so replacing only the streaking one usually means doing the other within weeks.

The rear blade for this vehicle is not established in the data we checked. No data available. Use a seller’s registration lookup rather than buying on length alone.
How to Replace Wiper Blades
Changing the front blades on the Nissan Micra takes a few minutes and needs no tools.
- Lift the arm away from the glass until it locks upright, and lay a folded cloth on the screen in case it drops.
- Release the old blade. Slide the blade down towards the base of the arm, then unhook the J-hook from the blade’s bridge and lift the blade clear.
- Compare old and new side by side before fitting — same length, same connector. If the adapter does not match, stop; forcing it damages the arm.
- Fit the new blade until the catch clicks home, then tug it gently to confirm it is locked.
- Lower the arm back to the glass by hand. Repeat on the other side, then test with plenty of washer fluid on a wet screen.
Never let a bare arm snap back onto the glass — a windscreen chipped that way is not covered by the blade warranty.
When to Replace Your Wipers
Wiper rubber hardens with UV and heat rather than with mileage, so a set on a car that is parked outside will usually be finished in about 12 months whatever the distance covered. Replace them when you see any of the following:
- Streaks or a haze left behind on the return sweep
- Juddering or chattering across the glass
- Missed strips of screen, especially at the top of the sweep
- Splits, curling or a shiny, glazed edge on the rubber
- Squealing that does not clear with a wash and a wipe of the rubber
Clean the rubber with a damp cloth every few weeks and clear leaves and grit from the base of the screen; both add months to a set. A blade that still streaks after cleaning is worn, not dirty.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size wiper blades does a Nissan Micra need?
Sources disagree for the Nissan Micra. 650 mm / 25.6 in + disputed short blade: 340 mm / 13.4 in on the flagged for left-hand drive Bosch entries, 350 mm / 13.8 in on the flagged for right-hand drive Valeo entry Because the figures conflict, measure the blades on your own car before ordering.
What fitting type do Nissan Micra wipers use?
The Nissan Micra is catalogued as: standard hook (9×3/9×4 J-hook) — the one car in this batch where a hook-fit retrofit blade is the correct answer
What rear wiper blade does a Nissan Micra take?
No data available for the rear blade on the Nissan Micra. Where suppliers disagree or list nothing, we say so rather than guess — check by registration.
How often should I replace Nissan Micra wiper blades?
About once a year for most UK cars. Wiper rubber degrades with UV, heat and grit rather than with mileage, so a car parked outside will need blades sooner than the distance covered suggests. Replace them as soon as they streak, judder or miss part of the sweep after cleaning.
Does the Nissan Micra need a right-hand-drive specific set?
Yes — at least one supplier publishes a distinct right-hand-drive part for this vehicle, listed in the references on this page. A UK car sweeps the opposite way to a left-hand-drive car and the blade profile and park position differ, so use the right-hand-drive part where the catalogue offers one.

How we check fitment for this guide
We cross-reference fitment figures against manufacturer specifications and OE-supplier catalogue data where available, and matched to the standard codes that actually govern fit — battery type/group sizes, wiper lengths and fitting types, bulb fitment codes, tyre size markings, and oil specifications. We work by make, model, year, engine, and build date, because a single model can take different parts across its life. Where the right part depends on your exact vehicle, we tell you to confirm by registration or VIN. More on our method →
