Must be either a miss packed unit or made wrong, the correct size is a 22".

I never trust anything anymore from manufacturers, one size fit sell, no. I either measure mine our take them off and match it to the replacement so I know the fit is correct.

What wipers?

Not intending to hijack this thread, but... what wipers will work on the 986?

Stores around here usually carry Valeo or Bosch. The only type they recommend is with "skeleton" wiper arms.
