Default windshield wiper help

I have purchased two different sets of windshield wipers and neither one will stay on. Another problem is finding a set that won't hit the hood when turned on.

Yea the wipers on both of my Z's hit the hood. I was wondering what's up.
I'll have to find the correct wipers also. Thanks.

These are the OEM blades everyone talks about. The Trico ones look exactly the same.

ACDelco 8-2202 Professional Performance Wiper Blade, 20 in

Just want to put that out there so it will be easier for the next person to track down the part number.
