I put the new style wiper arms on my coach but forgot to write down where I found them. Some research through the archives shows they should be late 90s chevy lumina arms. So that would require a 22" refill. Can someone verify this for me?

Thanks,

Jeremy,

The arms are from the driver's side of 90-96 Lumina APV, Olds Silouhette,
or Pontiac Transport. The 22" refill should work, but so will SOME 24".
Some of the Trico refills are 11.5" to one side of the "center" mount and
12" on the other. If you mount them with the 11.5" end away from the arm,
they'll clear the windshield's center divider. WIth the 12" end away from
the arm, it strikes that divider.

Thanks for the input. I will take a look and pick up some 22 or 24 inch refills for what is on there.
