Windshield Wiper Blade Assembly

Post by Ross Bowling »

I need to replace the windshield wiper assembly on Hull 114. I tried my local West Marine, and the auto parts store with no luck. Anyone know the part # and who made the originals? I would hate to need to do a major retrofit. Any help will be appreciated. I need the rubber blade and the piece that holds the blade. Don't need the entire arm that attaches to the motor.

WELL..After I posted the question, I was directed to a Napa Auto Parts Store and they in fact had the part. It is Napa Exact Fit wiper blade part # 60-018-1. I bought 3 of them and they charged me $9.00 a piece + tax. Thanks to Tom Green and Henry Clews who both responded. Let's keep up the GREAT Communication that this Forum provides.

I think that I might buy 3 more in case the blades fit the Opal Cadet only made for export to Kenya :D

Can anyone confirm that this Napa part number (60-018 -1) is still correct for replacing front window wiper blades? I have one blade that is broken.

I am not sure about the Napa blades but I just replaced my wipers in March. I gave up at the auto parts places, they were all to loose a fit. West Marine had some that looked like the would fit the arms but they didn't have 18 inch. I ordered some from Amazon and they fit perfect. Hopefully the link below will work. If not, they are AFI Polymer Marine Windshield Wiper Blades.

The Amazon link below (AFI) is good as well -- fit perfectly.
