Wiper Placement

Can someone post some pics of the passenger side wiper inside and out when not in use? I had the service bulletin done on the wiper and the passenger side doesn't look right from the inside. I think it should sit on the black border of the bottom of the window. I can see daylight or whatever you want to call it underneath the wiper to the outside. One of those anal distractions of mine I guess. Anyway I would appreciate if you could have somewhat of a close-up of the wiper position from inside so I can see if it's just me or they put a little too high. I try looking on net for it too.
Thanks.

I don't have time for a picture right now, but my pass. side wiper has about 1/2" of "daylight" at the far right side (from the perspective of the driver's seat). It tapers down to about 1/4" on the driver end. The service manual says that the pass. side "stop" position should be .9" from the top of the cowl cover (outside black plastic at base of windshield).

i dont think i can see any daylight where my wipers are...but may be thats because i replaced my blades with slim wipers instead of the fat stock wipers? would this warranty issue have anything to do with how my wiper blades dont clean the windshield...they just wipe the water? seems as if there isnt enough pressure on the blades from the arm.
