What size wiper blades for defender puma?
Typically 26 inches on the driver's side and 20 inches on the passenger's side. This pairing covers most Defender Puma models from the late 2000s to mid-2010s, but variations exist by year, body style, and aftermarket updates.
Understanding the Defender Puma and blade size variability
The Defender Puma refers to the generation of Land Rover Defender equipped with the 2.4L/2.2L Puma diesel engine (roughly 2007–2016 for the 2.4L and 2010–2016 for the 2.2L). Wiper blade sizes can vary by model year and by whether you own a Defender 90, 110, or Station Wagon. Because of windshield shape and mounting, the two-blade setup is common but the exact lengths should be confirmed for your vehicle.
Common sizes and how to verify
Use the sizes below as a quick reference, but check your current blades or the owner's manual for certainty.
- Driver side blade: typically 26 inches (650 mm)
- Passenger side blade: typically 20 inches (500 mm)
These sizes are widely used, but some Defender Puma models may have 28" and 16" combinations or 24" and 18" configurations, especially in earlier or special variants. Always verify by measuring or by checking the sticker on the blade packaging or the vehicle's manual.
How to confirm the exact size for your vehicle
To avoid guessing, follow these steps to confirm the correct blade lengths for your Defender Puma.
- Consult the owner's manual or the official parts catalog for your VIN.
- Measure the existing blades from end to end, including the curve if necessary.
- If replacing blades in a store, bring the old blades or the vehicle's make/model/year to ensure an exact fit.
- Consider aftermarket blades that specify compatibility with Land Rover Defender models and provide a VIN check option.
Note: If you have a dual-arm wiper setup with a curved windshield, ensure the compatibility of connector types and arc length when purchasing replacement blades. Fitment can vary by blade style (frameless vs framed) and by the wiper arm protocol.
Summary
For Defender Puma models, the typical wiper blade sizes are around 26 inches on the driver side and 20 inches on the passenger side, though there can be variations by year, body style, and aftermarket changes. Always verify by checking the manual or measuring the blades you intend to replace. When in doubt, consult a parts retailer with your VIN to ensure an exact match.
