Sorry no info on what blade i used. I went to Canadian Tire and spent a couple of minutes looking at blades until i found a good one. Maybe mine are 13" and I bought a 26".
One of the reasons I do this is the Trico stainless hold the rubber without needing to bend any bits, mine have a flat blade holding section that the rubber is squezed through. I used to drive a 120 in the winter so I know the wiper system is underbuilt. A nice light wiper arm and blade are the best bet for longevity. I don't really drive in the rain much if I can help it so by the time the rubber has rotted out the brands will have changed and I'll find the profile that works, some car stuff doesn't change all the time, some does.
