Default WIper blade upgrade

I did the Wiper Blade upgrade to the newer blades from a 95-96,

https://www.corvetteforum.com/techti...D=42&TopicID=2

But the Pass side does not go down under the hood as far as I would like, is this adjustable?

The wiper arm is Keyed so I can not simply rotate the wiper arm on the splined shaft.

Did they both tuck under to begin with? I assume mine did from the factory yet the passenger side sits exposed. I have adjusted them down as far as I can go and as close together without hitting.

There's no play in the linkage either.

I give up.

(And yes the park feature works fine and the plastic stops are all the way down.)
