Title: Widow wiper blade
Post by: Laszlo on November 08, 2021, 07:44:40 PM
Hello everyone  !

I have a brand new front window on my Fe.
I just wondering what is the best wiper blade ?
I don't want to stretch  the new glass.
I saw earlybitz selling some for Fe Fc. Bloody expensive $74 with postage.
Any suggestions  ?

Cheers  : Laszlo

Laszlo,

You should be able to go down to your local parts place with the wiper arm and buy a universal blade refill, which you then cut to length.  And it'll be way less than $74 + postage.

Thanks Rob !

I did try supercheap before. No luck there.
I will look around, I  hope I will find some metal base refill somewhere.

You can take the rubber out of the metal base and replace.

Ye wiper blades seem to have gone all hi-tech (expensive rubbish) last few years
