BMW 1 Series Wiper Blades Size Guide
The BMW 1 Series is the entry point to the BMW passenger car range, a premium small car offered as a hatchback and, in the E82 and E88 generation, as a coupe and convertible. The F40 and F70 Hatchbacks (2019-2025) take a 26 inch (650mm) blade on the driver side and a 17 inch (425mm) blade on the passenger side, while the F20 takes a 22 inch (550mm) and 19 inch (475mm) pair and the E87, E82 and E88 take a matched 20 inch (500mm) pair. The E87, E82, E88 and F20 use a pinch tab connector, the F40 uses a model specific connector and the F70 uses a slim push button connector, and every Hatchback has a rear wiper while the Coupe and Convertible do not.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size wiper blades does a BMW 1 Series take?
The F40 (2019-2022) and F70 (2024-2025) Hatchbacks take a 26 inch (650mm) driver blade and a 17 inch (425mm) passenger blade. The F20 Hatchback (2011-2019) takes a 22 inch (550mm) and 19 inch (475mm) pair, and the E87 Hatchback, E82 Coupe and E88 Convertible take a 20 inch (500mm) blade on both sides.
Does the BMW 1 Series have a rear wiper?
Every BMW 1 Series Hatchback is fitted with a rear wiper. The rear blade is 11 inches (275mm) on the E87, 12 inches (300mm) on the F20 and 14 inches (350mm) on the F40 and F70, while the E82 Coupe and E88 Convertible have two front wiper blades only.
What wiper connector does the BMW 1 Series use?
The E87, E82, E88 and F20 use a pinch tab connector, where the blade clips onto the arm and releases when the tabs are squeezed together. The F40 uses a model specific connector and the F70 uses a slim push button connector, so blades from earlier generations will not fit these models.
Can F20 wiper blades be used on the BMW 1 Series F40?
No, the F40 introduced in 2019 uses a longer 26 inch (650mm) driver blade, a shorter 17 inch (425mm) passenger blade and a model specific connector in place of the F20 pinch tab. The rear blade also grows from 12 inches (300mm) to 14 inches (350mm), so owners should order by generation using the table above.
How often should I replace BMW 1 Series wiper blades?
BMW 1 Series wiper blades should generally be replaced every 12 months, or sooner if they streak, smear or chatter. Hatchback owners should check the rear blade at the same time, as it is often forgotten and can harden even when it is used less than the front pair.
