    Trico Wipers- Are these ok for a '62?

    I purchased a pair of Trico wiper blades from a gentleman on Ebay and thought I'd share, mostly to see what the consensus is on whether these are right or not. The part that mounts on the wiper arm has a riveted spring arm, and has PAT 2,752,626 on one side and 2807822 on the other. The arms themselves have black plastic hemispherical end caps, the Trico logo near each end and a bunch of patent numbers. The 12" rubber blades have 48 dots, 3 full and 2 half elliptical bumps, and 3 zones of embossed printing: "Trico" in the middle, "Patent 2543383 PAT PEND CAN 1949" in the right mid, and 2 lines of text near the right- "BR. 593775.702900" on top, and "PAT.2733469 CAN.54 BR 733626" below.

    Any thoughts or comments? Thanks!

              They look OK to me , the rubber inserts can have the Elliptical bumps or not , remember there was more then one supplier to Trico. I have wiper blades with both bumps and none. My 2cents

                      The configuration of the holders, tips and rubber inserts look correct to me. It has been my understanding that the patent numbers on the SS holders are not correct for original pieces. They should only say TRICO. Can anyone out there shed some light on that.
