    Thanks, I believe the original ones are from SWF, but are those from ANCO also used for 911?

    Almost every manufacturer makes replacement blades for 911s. Anco is just another replacement blade, albeit more "period correct".

    But do check the fit carefully. Many aftermarket blades these days don't come with an adapter that securely fits the old wiper arms on these cars. The last set of Bosch blade I bought for my '84 lacked proper adapters, so I reused the old ones from the aged blades.

    I bought new SWF reproduction blades for the '72 from Eric at Auto Foreign. They fit correctly.
