OK. don't laugh....
We have an 2005 EXDP that had 32" blades. I was not about to pay $80 for a pair of replacement blades. Went to Wal*Mart and got a set of 28" Rain-X premium blades for $8 each. A couple minutes each to remove the center rivet and re-insert/ream the spacer. They fit right in the existing mount with the same bolt, nut, etc. The coverage area is still plenty for my needs and these seem to last. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
No, I won't laugh, I considered doing the very same thing (I think Trico makes 28" blades with the same frame as the 67-321, so it would have been practical; plus, they're distributed by Advance Auto Parts and CarQuest). But when I sat in my coach's driver's seat and thought about where the narrower wiper sweep would fall in my field of vision, I decided to hold out for the 32" blades.
