Setting the bar really high for tonight, I needed an easy win.
Installed the new GM hook-style wiper arms and some new blades. This was a nice upgrade!
What's odd is I already knew there's a big difference between the driver and passenger side with this style, as evidenced by different part #'s, but mostly by the fact that if you swap them to the wrong side it will become evident very quickly.. the old peg style seem to be the exact same part for both sides.
I saw elsewhere someone mention that the hook style "sit lower on the glass" but this is not accurate. With no adjustment to the wiper linkages at all, just a straight swap from peg to hook, mine rest in the exact same spot on the glass. I tried first to get a pic showing the dust line from the old wiper when I removed it, but it wouldn't show.
Old vs. new
