I was thinking there was some kind of adjustment if a person wants the wipers to park on the left, or right hand side, but don't recall?

This is good info. Looks "funny" tho, so I am guessing not very many folks have them adjusted like this.

I like my drivers wiper to be a bit longer and stop a bit shorter. It does touch the trim. Looks like it touches the trim here too.
