Photo please: how low should the wiper arms park?

[tangcla]

I think my wiper arm sticks up too high when it's in the park position.
Can someone please show me how low their wiper arms park underneath the bonnet (or hood, if you're that way inclined)?

This is what it should look like:



A bit of lube helps:

Thanks Tim. Mine does go to park but I think the wiper arm has come off before and is not seated in the lowest position.
But, I'll lubricate the linkages to see if it helps first.

Looks awesome Timm. My wipers don't show at all, because I took them off. I didn't like that they showed above the cowl, and I don't drive Eva in the rain anyway. I am also religious with the RainX just in case.

You'd need more than RainX to drive in the UK!!

I have no doubt Timm. But here in the Midwest, and Eva being a toy means she doesn't need to see rain.
