Are they the same thing? Do I need one or two of these if they are different (and where do these go?)

Thanks!

They are windshield supports. There is one for each side of the car. They are both the same, so you don't have to worry about right hand or left hand parts. There should be a soft pad on the surface next to the windshield

If the rubber pad is rotted or missing you can dip them in plastic dip to recoat them. Give them a good cleaning and paint them first. Dip just the top part. Put on at least 3 or 4 coats.

You can also use Window Frame Molding Seal, cut it to your desired size and then just glue the piece to the windshield support bracket

The wide one is on drivers side and passenger side so there is two of them. the narrow one is in middle, where passenger side wiper arm is, its held down by one of the 3 wiper arm bolts…
