Re: Wiper refills
That is deceptive. Good sleuthing. Can you post a pic when you get them in?

Re: Wiper refills
Will do. My thinking was to get a pair in and make sure they are what I think they are.

Re: Wiper refills
Thank you! I'm almost positive they are just the "old style rubber blades" from TriCo; slide the old ones out & slide the new ones in, if I'm remembering correctly. Been a while since I had the Cutlass.

Re: Wiper refills
Yeah...that's what I'm expecting, anyway. Just like we used to have to do back in the day. I just wanted the Laguna to look period correct with the original stainless wiper arms...not that I'll probably ever use the wipers. You know...planning on it being a fair weather driver and all.

Re: Wiper Refills
Got the Trico refills in and they are what I remembered. Note when ordering (I had forgotten this)...each package contains a pair of blades. Installing them brought back memories how putsy they can be compared to the easy install of wiper arms nowdays. Still, I like the original look of them on these cars.
And, installed on the arms waiting to be put into service on Project Laguna!

Re: Wiper refills
They look good! Were all Laguna wiper arms painted or is that my bad eye's again?
My 77 Chevelle has bright stainless arms, no paint.

Re: Wiper refills
Still haven't found your glasses, huh! Kidding!! No...these are the same bare stainless/metal ones found on all these A bodies.

Re: Wiper refills
, maybe I need a stronger prescription!
Can U use a flash next time?
LOL
BTW- did you have to use the special tool or did you improvise to remove the wiper arms?

Re: Wiper refills
I didn't know there was a special tool!
I just use a small tack puller to release the little tab while prying up on it. I could see where a special tool would make this a little easier.

Re: Wiper refills
These blade refills are still avail from your link Steve- although now it's $20.00 (two pairs!) net to me- w/ free ship & a $2.00 discount!
