Anybody find refills for Trico 32" wiper blades?

I think I know the answer to the question after searching the Internet. Was trying to save a few bucks by purchasing refills for the Trico 32" wipers on the MH. Couldn't find any.

I did notice that some have gone down to 28" blades and said they didn't notice real difference. They are cheaper than 32" and refills are available. Comments?

Funny thing is that CW was the cheapest for the full replacement arms at $70 for the pair including shipping.

    It appears Camping World has them.


    OP here. That is the one I mentioned in my OP. Was looking for just the refill.

    No refills that I know of -- I have a 07 Camelot, & changed to 28 inch blades about 3 years ago - They work just as well as the 32`s did -- I got the boomerang type blades -- They form to the windshield better -- Bill Willard


    I assume that your '07 Camelot uses the saddle mount rather than the J hook type wipers?
  • Went to 28" several years ago. Just drill out the rivet on new blades and attach with original bolt. Don't notice any differance form the 32".

    Bought 2 at CW on sale 50% so use 32 on driver's side & 28 on other.
  • tiffin sell real nice genuine 32 inch J hook blades for $20.00 each

    I switched to the longest ones available at Walmart or Autozone, 28 inches, and don't miss the extra few inches. $6.99 is much better than $29.95.

    X2 - I am with you because that is exactly what I do, and do not miss the four inch wipe pattern on the windshield.
  • Look for the longest car/PU type blades at the local Auto supply stores. They are WAY cheaper than RV blades. Then adapt them to fit the arms on your RV. All it takes for mine is for me to drill the holes in the new blades out a little bit, so that the RV connector pins will fit through the holes. Total cost for the new blades (good ones) is around 30 bucks. The shorter blades don't bother me at all.
