Hey guys,

What are you using for wiper blades? I was wondering if there is anywhere to get replacement blades that slide into these?View media item 9467

Not really anymore, I vote no. Them refills are from the olden days. Youre better off buying a new part at oreillys or something. I think mine are BOSCH.
BUT. After 30 or 40 years the springs in the arms are not meeting modern day expectations either . A good suggestion may be to also buy new wiper arms. I bought mine from A1.
Good stuff!

Completely agree.

Even if they are still made todays wiper frames are not made to be reused and the springs can't take reuse.

I vote Bosch clear advantage. Run them on all my rigs, last a long time. If you get new arms you'll be amazed how much that helps to.
