Re: [FWDLK] Now...where to get WIPER BLADE REFILLS ?

["C. B. Kidder" <60Saratoga@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This spring when I needed new blades for my `60 Saratoga I was able to buy
refills of the correct size, and slightly bend the holding tangs to
accomodate the newer thinner style. I don't remember why, but the ones I
bought were too long, yet I was able to snip them off cleanly with a pair of
Sears wire cutters. I am really impressed with their fit and function now.
