I replaced my blades last year on my Dolphin. I took one of the blades to the auto parts store here and let them try to find a match. It took some time but they found a set. The problem, they were expensive. It cost over $100 for the pair. I trust the store and feel they didn't gouge me, at least I hope they didn't. The blades were made in Italy.

Good luck finding new ones for your rig. Please let me know if you can find them a lot cheaper.

I also put tennis balls under the wiper arms to keep pressure off the rubber and I cover the blades to protect them from the sun.

cannon man,

The OEM windshield wiper system supplier that National RV used was, Denso. Their pdf file for the wiper components is:
www.densoheavyduty.com/pdf/2009%20RV%20wiper%20system%20service%20parts%20cat alog.pdf
Blade Assembly: #LA847210-0840
Blade Refill only: #LA060150-0150
Hope this helps.

Ed

I bought Michelin blades at Walmart and modified them to fit by removing the rivet that held part of the attachment hardware. I then had a hole just the right size for the screws that attaced them to the arm.

Just what I did, only I went up to a longer blade, Michelin 28" I believe, works fine! I love saving money!

Did you check-out the Denso blades, mine were less than $8.00 a pair.

I purched mine at http:// http://www.sparkplugs.com/ Denso part # LA060150-0010. The price is now just over $12.00. Understand these are just the rubber inserts, that will slide into the original wiper arms.

The Denso catalog is here http:// http://www.densoheavyduty.com/rv/windshield.php


Looks like the links will need some editing, sorry.

Fred

I bought a pair cheap at Advanced Auto and did some slight modification, but it's been a while and I couldn't tell you now, what it was. Thing is, there's always a way to make something work and at a reasonable price.
