Simple ? - Rear wiper...

This is one of those simple little annoying things.. But does anyone get about a 6" circle on the rear window that the rear wiper misses?

Everything seems to look ok and I've got new Bosch wiper blades on, but I have this annoying 6" spot that the blade doesn't touch at about the 2 o'clock position. Good coverage every where else though.

i was just about to post my review of those springs but its been done for me! lol

but seriously it has fixed my rear wiper totally. it clears the whole window and also works better in the snow/ice. the blade doesn't ride above the stuff on the window anymore it actually wipes it away.
