I installed some on my 03 Mountain Aire. Had to enlarge the holes in the wiper blade with a drill bit so that the holes line up with the brace that holds them. Haven't try them out yet.

Our DSDP has 32" blades and the longest I've seen at any of our local Costco's is 24". I'd try a 28" if I could find them here although I've got two new 32" ones in one of the storage bays now.

Are these 28" blades acceptable improvements to the 32" TV8-32 TruVision wiper blades?

You bet, plus about $70 cheaper and easier to find. 28" Goodyear's at Costco. Buy two sets. That way you almost insure you won't need the second set. Not that much difference in 4 inches.

I've read some posts that the J Hook for the TV8 is too big for these. Is that the case?
