Mazda 3 Wiper Blades Size Guide

The Mazda 3 is a compact car that Mazda has sold as both a hatchback and sedan since 2003, spanning four generations identified by the BK, BL, BM/BN and BP series codes. Most generations take a 24 inch (600mm) blade on the driver side, with passenger side sizes ranging from 17 inch (425mm) to 19 inch (475mm) depending on generation. Front wipers use a standard hook-style connector across all generations, and hatchback variants are fitted with a rear wiper as standard while sedan variants are not.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size wiper blades does a Mazda 3 take?

Wiper blade sizes for the Mazda 3 vary by generation. Driver side sizes range from 21 inch (525mm) on the BK to 26 inch (650mm) on the BP, while passenger side sizes range from 17 inch (425mm) to 19 inch (475mm) depending on the year and series.

Does the Mazda 3 have a rear wiper?

Rear wiper fitment depends on body type rather than generation. Hatchback variants of the Mazda 3, across the BK, BL, BM/BN and BP series, are fitted with a rear wiper blade as standard, with rear sizes ranging from 12 inches (300mm) to 14 inches (350mm). Sedan variants are not fitted with a rear wiper and use two front wiper blades only.

What wiper connector does the Mazda 3 use?

The Mazda 3 uses a standard hook-style connector on the front wipers across every generation covered in the table above. This connector type does not require additional adaptors to fit.

Why does the Mazda 3 BM/BN hatchback use a smaller rear blade than other generations?

The BM/BN hatchback (2013 to 2019) uses a 12 inch (300mm) rear blade, which is smaller than the 14 inch (350mm) rear blade fitted to the BK, BL and BP hatchback generations. This reflects a change in rear windscreen design for that generation, so owners should confirm their series before ordering a replacement rear blade.

How often should Mazda 3 wiper blades be replaced?

Wiper blades typically need replacing every 12 months, though this can vary depending on sun exposure, usage and storage conditions. Blades should be replaced sooner if streaking, skipping or unusual noise is noticed during operation.
