2012 Nissan Sentra wiper blades: common questions

What size wiper blades does a 2012 Nissan Sentra take?

26 inches on the driver's side and 17 inches on the passenger's side.

Can you fit a longer wiper blade on a 2012 Nissan Sentra?

Going up one inch usually clears, but it is not free: an oversized driver's blade can overlap the passenger blade at the top of the sweep, or run off the edge of the glass and chatter. The factory sizes are chosen to sweep the maximum area without contact.

What wiper connector does a 2012 Nissan Sentra use?

J-hook connector; same sizes across 2007–2012. Blade packaging lists the connector type. Match it or the adapter will not latch.
