Subaru Legacy Wiper Blades Size Guide
The Subaru Legacy is a mid size car manufactured by Subaru, sold in both sedan and station wagon body styles across several generations. The Legacy takes a 22 inch (550mm) blade on the driver side and a 20 inch (500mm) blade on the passenger side in its most recent generation, though earlier generations use slightly smaller sizes. Front wipers use a J-hook connector across all generations, and rear wiper fitment depends on body style, with station wagon models fitted with a rear wiper and sedan models without one.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size wiper blades does a Subaru Legacy take?
Wiper blade sizes for the Subaru Legacy depend on the generation. The 1GEN (1989 to 1993) uses a 20 inch driver blade and an 18 inch passenger blade, the 2GEN (1993 to 1999) uses a 21 inch driver blade and an 18 inch passenger blade, and the 3GEN (1998 to 2004) steps up to a 22 inch driver blade and a 20 inch passenger blade. Owners should check their exact model year in the table above to confirm the correct size.
Does the Subaru Legacy have a rear wiper?
Rear wiper fitment on the Legacy depends on body style rather than generation. Station wagon models are fitted with a rear wiper as standard, while sedan models are not and use two front wiper blades only. This pattern holds across all three generations covered here.
What wiper connector does the Subaru Legacy use?
All Legacy generations covered here use a J-hook front wiper connector. This applies to both sedan and station wagon variants across the 1GEN, 2GEN and 3GEN model ranges.
Why do Legacy sedan and wagon models need different wiper blade kits?
The sedan and station wagon versions of the Legacy share the same front wiper sizes and connector within each generation, but only the wagon carries a rear windscreen wiper. Buyers should select the wiper kit that matches their specific body style, not just their model year, to avoid ordering rear blades for a sedan that does not use one.
How often should I replace Subaru Legacy wiper blades?
Most Legacy owners should replace their wiper blades every 6 to 12 months, or sooner if streaking, skipping or noise appears during use. Australian conditions, including intense UV exposure, tend to wear rubber blades faster than milder climates.
