Default Victoria Wiper and Blade

I am trying to upgrade my windshield wiper motor, arm and blade to the correct type for my Victoria. I have the correct vacuum motor and looked at the judging standards as a starting place but there are no installed pictures and I am not sure if the spring is to be exposed or if it is to have a shield over it. The 8" blade seems long as it hits the top of the windshield frame. Maybe it is supposed to.

I would appreciate any help in getting this right. If you have some pictures that would be great as well. I know there are a lot of Vicky's out there that have this correct.

If I remember right, the Victoria wiper motor is the same as the A400 wiper motor, just not plated. If so, the spring has a metal cover over it. If you haven't done so, I would order the arm and blade from A&L. They are dead on like the originals.

Let's just say they are the closest out there.
