C1 Trico Refills

[Bob B.]

Hi all,

I have what i believe is an original Trico refill for my 1960. It is the shiny stainless, it has the patent numbers on just about every available surface, it has the connection that works only with the flat-end wiper arm, and it has the rows of dots on the rubber and more patent numbers. It does not have the elongated raised bumps on the rubber as do the repros.

So, I am wondering if the elongated raised bumps are not correct or if the rubber can have them or not? Also, is there a good source for identifiction of the correct Corvette application for the different refills, such as the ones that have the dull finish on the metal, or that have the connection that can be used for two types of arms, etc. and etc.?

Thanks,

Bob

Yes and no different suppliers and second designs (more arguments)

(or that have the connection that can be used for two types of arms)one type only no adapter, flat-end only!
