OEM Flat-blade windshield wipers

[BUCKWHEAT]

Digging in my parts bin I found the OEM wiper blades that came on my brand-new 2003 300A. I took them off, like most people, because they were so bad in actual use. All these years later, your Marauder isn't stock if it has the replacement blades. Does anybody care? Do you remember this 'Ford had a better idea'? Just an odd-ball question.

I still have 2 sets of original wiper blades stashed away. I figured they would be unobtainium by now. I'd be surprised if anyone else cares though. I agree, if you want a "correct" car, you have to have them.

Edit: Forgot to mention, there was a discontinue order on these because they failed so often. I have a copy of the order somewhere. The parts guy I got it from said he'd never seen anything like it.

They were DUMB...and should NEVER have been on the car..."correct" or not.

but they sure looked good. Windshield wipers for a sunny day!

No argument here, but they did look pretty cool. I got comments about them when the car was new, "those are the skinniest wipers I've ever seen". Took mine off before they came apart.
