I might be the only guy who really liked the original super thin wiper blades that cam stock on at least the 2003 Marauders. I like them so much I stil have the original blades on almost 4 years later. The reason I never changed them is the replacements are all thick. Evan the Mercury dealers replacements are changed to the thick ones.
Does anyone know where to find some factory wipers or a aftermarket that is super thin like the originals?
Thanks

I believe Valeo makes them and are sold through the Tire Rack. Or they could be a close facsimile of the original. Keep us posted.

Mike: Give me a couple of days to look at home. If I have my stock ones (I took them off on the way home from the dealer). I will send them to you.

Things are rough at work, and I am traveling as well, so give me a couple of days and feel free to nudge me if I forget.

Trcio Innovision are much cheaper than the Valeo's, available Napa and other places. They have a larger mounting piece (for universal fit), the blade and support a thin liek the originals.

I loved the originals as well and only took mine off recently.

Ok Martyo...I will remind you in a few days. Thank you.

I tried the ones from NAPA...no good...too big.

The Valeo I will check out today.

The Valeo's are the best performing wiper blade I have ever owned. Period

Do any of the blades discussed here work at highway speed? Seems like 70-75, forgetabout the wipers being worth anything.
