Does anyone have a part number and or source for the 28" wiper blades on my 08 Winne Destination? I have purchased 2 different models and neither one of them will fit over the hook in the arm. I have the Winne part number (157532-01-000) but would like to avoid buying from a dealer if possible.

Last month I had the same problem, too wide of hook on arm. I went to Napa and they sent me to Carquest where they had to order a pair of Anco W-28R wide wiper refills. I'm guessing they will fit your 08 motorhome also. Give em a try.

Ocassionally, Camping World offers their RV wipers buy one get one free. I've always found the larger wipers we have on our Winnebago's there.

Do you have the original wiper arms? Are they serviceable. I just went to AutoZone and purchased replacement slide in blades. They worked fine. My problem was "how do I get the old rubber out?" On the tip end, push the rubber aside and grab the wire with a pair of needle nose or pliers and pull hard. The wire will slip out. Do the same to the other wire. Now just pull the rubber out. Find the 28" replacement rubber at a parts store and slip it in place along the track. I had to take needle nose pliers and just gently spread the bottom end clip for the new part to slip in.
If you need the entire wiper arm, let me know where you get it.

The J hook on the wiper arm is wider than normal. I am going to try the Anco W-28R wide wiper refills mentioned above. I found them on Amazon for less than $10 each.
