Great Product
Very easy to adjust length of wiper refill. Much better alternative than changing entire wiper arm.

TOO THICK! NOT An Exact Fit, as Listed

I bought these refills because they were an exact fit for my 1998 and 2001 Buick Century.
However, no amount of excessive force could make them fit the wiper arm assemblies on my car.
They are 8 mm wide, which is about 1 mm wider than the slot they need to go into.
Since it is raining today and the old ones are breaking apart, I did my best to MAKE them work; however, it is impossible.
They are NOT an "Exact Fit;" they are not even an abusive force fit.
Wasted time and effort. Another trip to the parts store.
DO NOT BUY these, unless you take the wiper arm to the store to verify fit.

I was impressed with the design which made it very easy to replace the original blades. And they work just fine. (2001 Bonneville)

Comments about Trico Break-to-Fit Refills:
for some reason subaru decided on the 06 tribeca to use refill blades only. this pack was to change them out. the drivers side fit prefect. however for the passenger side refill, the groove is narrower and half as thick. so now i have a spare driver side blade. and will have to go to subaru for the passenger side.

Service person put a smaller wiper blade than recommended. Parts are not stocked for refills. So now a $7 refill costs twice as much.

Comments about Trico Break-to-Fit Refills:
Easy to install, save the environment and save money. Make sure it is long enough. You can always cut it by yourself if it is too long. I saw three different ones (in length) in store, 47-600, 47-700 and 47-800. 47-800 is the longest. The old one is not as wide as the new one. However, I tried and both fit the same wiper holder. I use it for both Honda Accord and CRV.

Comments about Trico Break-to-Fit Refills:
Save the environment by not wasting those wiper holders every time you change the wiper! These work though you need scissors to cut the rubber and wire cutters to cut the metal. Not an easy cut even with their "precut" locations at 1" increments.

Comments about Trico Break-to-Fit Refills:
it's great to still be able to buy the wiper re-fill, when so many parts stores only sell the whole blade. What a waste, and aftermarket ones are plastic. I like the OEM metal blades. If your wiper blades are different lengths (left vs. right), but the same width, you only have to buy one refil, and break to fit. I love this product.
