Perhaps one of the dumbest questions on the board?
Ok, everybody here talks about aftermarket parts, trick motors, suspension, etc.
NOW, here's my dilemma for the day. I went to 2 chain parts stores to get wipers. Yup, you heard me. Wipers. Ended up buying some trico teflon refills, correct by the trico book, and they don't fit worth crap. The other day one popped out of the claw farthest from the little holder doo-dad. I really don't wanna put on the black blades, so what do I use for a replacement refill for the brushed finish blades???? |

I just put on Anco 15" refills that I purchased form O'Reilly's and they fit just fine.

Re: Perhaps one of the dumbest questions on the board?
I used Anco's I got from wally world. I can't remember if I got the 14 or 15", probably 15? I remember they were longer than stock, but they covered the window area better without hitting anything. They were the ones where you put the whole blade on the wiper arm, not just a refill. They clicked right in place and haven't budged since.
