ANCO part number U-15R. Can be gotten at most autoparts stores, may need to be ordered. Much cheaper online.

WalMart used to carry them. I got some for a customer Corvette to use the stock housings. Modern blades will not clear the wiper door on 68-72 Corvette.

It's hit or miss. My local Vautozone had 2 pairs of the Anco U-15-R in stock. None other in the Austin area. I found some on Amazon as well.

Re: Stock Wiper Blade Refills ?
so are thes Anco blades good? I need to replace mine also and I know the ones on the newer vehicles work great, maybe they have more pressure than our older ones? I dont like to drive in the rain in my truck but I still do so I would like some good ones.
