In the distant past, different cars, it was possible to get wiper blade "refill" rubbers and fit to existing holders. Is this still possible on our cars? Can't seem to find refills in local auto stores. Just the holder assemblies to attach to arms.

These, from Halfords (£5.25 inc. VAT with a Trade Card), are what I use on mine, which is fitted with Mini Spares 13H5630 Heavy Duty SS arms with GWB220 blades.

 

I found these much better than the Mini Spares rubber blades

Trimmed them down, from 16", to give maximum sweep.

OK, good to know they are still a thing. Now just have to find a supplier here in Canada!

That`s good to know, thanks as it`s hard to fit wiper refills for 8 mm wide blades.

I knew it was a good idea to fill a drawer with old stainless blades :)
