Scratch WallyWorld off the list. They used to carry refills where I shop in WA and CA. Last couple years I don't see them anymore. They like to sell you the whole works; more profit. You might try a google or shopping website.

NAPA sells "classic" or some such name blades that really are like the original units and solved my contact issue with a non-functional metal cowl induction hood. They just sat lower, like the originals.

They are getting harder to find. NAPA is probably your best bet. The local Autozone, Advanced and O'Reilly stores have all begun carrying only whole blade mechanisms.

For our VW, the only place I can get the correct ones is from the VW dealer at $16 a pair JUST FOR THE REFILLS which consist of only the rubber blade, you still need to reuse the metal stabilizers!

NAPA, just bought a set of refills for my Trico blade holders. They came with the metal stabilizers.

alot of parts stores are getting rid of the refills, because they dont fit and the customers keep returning them.

NAPA sell direct replacements under the Vintage wiper blade name. They snap onto the stock arms and have the original dull (anti-glare) silver finish just like the originals. The NAPA part number is 60-1647. Be prepared to pay about 15 bucks for a pair.

Except that the ealier cars have polished stainless steel arms. I doubt they can sell that style!
