Wiper Blade refills from CarQuest

DanS · 08-11-2003, 04:36 PM

I've been looking for a way to avoid paying Camping World $28 or so for each wiper blade replacement. Today I found a 24 inch refill at CarQuest that's a perfect match for the original wiper blades and only cost about $7 each!! It is CarQuest Part # 755-240. I had just about given up until I found this one. They had to order it from their warehouse but it arrived in less than a day...goes on like the original! Nice to save a buck on this Rig once in awhile, everything else costs too much!!

Ken, why can't you just post the web site URL for everyone to see?

Good web site but maybe you missed my point. When I work through that site and look for "where sold", the only place listed (in Calif) is.......Camping World!! My original point was that I found another source for refills for the OEM Blades.....CarQuest.....and they only charge a little over $6 each. They are identical to the original blades and go in with no problem! Seems to me to be a lot cheaper than CW. Anyway, they are replaced now. I think I'll order a spare set...only $12 to do that. Probably the least expensive thing I've done to my coach.

FYI Horizon & Vectra windshield wiper blades.

NAPA has exact replacement wiper blade refills for the 24" blades used on the 04, 05, & 06 Vectra and Horizon and possibly other years. They are manufactured by TRICO and have the TRICO part number of 75-240. The NAPA part number is WIP602410. Price paid was $7.69 each.

The entire blade is TRICO part 68-241 and has the NAPA part number WIP602480. This may very well be the same refill that would fit Journeys and other models with 24" blades.
