windshield wipers

[sbcbob]

...... just changed the wiper blades on the 05 with oem delco blades. What I want to know is who is the (donkey's rear end) that came up with the squirt'rs
for this vehicle? A classic piece of plastic crap (afterthought ) - and why don't the new blades come with new squirt'rs: mad

Thanks for the heads-up. When I purchase my first set of replacement blades I'll know what to expect......but, of course......I've never used my blades yet because the SSR has never been in the rain!

Good luck finding replacement blades for the 04. I have an 03 and can't find replacement blades. Going to upgrade to the 05/06 wiper arms, different style & blades are available.

I've done a few sets of refills in my stock blades over the years. Someday I may switch to arm mounted sprayers so I can try those new beam blades.

I purchased replacement wiper blade refills last year from Napa with no problems for our 2004.

Drivers side 602041
Passenger side 601941

Very easy to install and can retain original arms and washer nozzels.

Hmmmm ....

I'm not knowing where you are looking for these replacement blades Mr.T but it's the same blade used on all of the SSr's (03'-06') Mind you it's just the replacement blade by it's self, you will have to install them on your old holders. Heck, I went to Chase last week and bought two sets of blades. I think I paid right around $12.00 for a set and they were in stock. Here's the GM parts numbers....

15220314

15220273

I was told they are a instock item and will not disappear any time soon

Great, thanks Blackie for information, is Chase a Chevy dealership?

["BLACKIE"]

Yes they are Mr T ......

Right in beautiful Stockton, Ca.

I believe there is a SB to change the arm and blade as a kit. I did it my 04 sometime ago. This change got away from the washer on the blade and now it is on the arm.

Yes the arm/blade is different for the early and late SSRs, but the refills, the rubber inserts, are the same.

[Kruser]

I had my blades changed out at a dealer ( don't use them any more) and they changed out the arm mounted squirters because "the old ones were sun rotted" now they only spray the upper 1/2 of the windshield.

Any info on finding ones that spray DOWN as well as UP?

More info from KruSSR Mine is a late 2005 ( the interior is all 2006) if that makes any difference in the squiters

I dropped by our local Auto Zone and the guy sold me 20" refills, cut one inch off of one and installed them in the parking lot..no charge.
(I bought him a Diet Coke)
Keeping a clean windshield and cleaning the wipers with Windex may extend their life but like anything else eventually time takes its toll and they deteriorate.
I thought after 7 years that I'd better replace them.
