I just put on the 28" wipers which I bought at O''Rielys..they work great and cost me$15 for both...I went cheap in case they did not work. 2008 41 ft Monaco Knight

I got 30 inch Rain X blades at Lowes in Batavia New York $9.97 each. Work like a charm!!

I went to Trico.com for a part #...Gave it to my local auto parts store...that afternoon i had exact match complete blade assemblies(NOT refills) that fit perfectly. No flutter @ highway speeds, no streaking, no missed areas of the WS.

The above was for a 96 Dynasty

Large REAL auto parts stores...(not autozone or advanced) most always have 1 or more warehouses they obtain parts from. Those warehouses usually do handle more than just "auto" parts...and the store can usually obtain the needed item the same day(in larger metro areas).

I didn't post this to bash the Zone or Advanced...but if their computer can't give them an answer...the counterperson is LOST

What part number did they give you?

Off topic a little...


How do you guys protect these wiper blades?

Outside of indoor parking, do you put a tennis ball under the arms?



How about swapping (reversing) them to extend their life?

Am equipment mentioned earlier has any wiper part you need for Monaco coaches. They had the 36 inch with wide saddle I needed for my Dynesty.

I did what SCVJeff did. But, I am new to this motorhome, a 2002 Holiday Rambler Imperial with a one piece windshield.


After I had the wiper blades mounted, I thought I would see just how well they work. Well, they work just fine. BUT, the arm stops dead center in front of the steering wheel, and leaves half of the windshield on the driver's side unwiped. When the wipers are off, they park at the bottom of the glass and look like that is the way it should be, but again, wipes only half the driver's side. The passenger side gets a good wipe. Can't imagine driving in much of a rain storm with these wipers.
