Something I would like info on. Someone here had original refills at one time, recently. cliff

If you find it let us know. I have looked for two months now, have ordered 8 plus refills that I felt were "it". Wrong - it's about 11mm wide I think, I'm still trying.

John,
I have been searching for months and finally found these last week on E-Bay.
They appear to an exact match, however I have not installed them yet.
They are the same part number as the ones listed in Pelican Parts, but Pelican has been out of them for like forever!
This is what Ed Mayo recommends:
Trico,,,,30-130, built like the original blades, follow the windshield curvature better than the new Bosch.

I considered buying these and using just the rubber insert until I found the inserts separately.
IMO, these do not match the originals that well.
