Has anyone found replacements for the 2008 wiper blades? I am looking for replacements but none seem to mount on the arms. Does anyone have aftermarket blades and what is the part numbers?

Thanks

I put the Rain X ones on my 08 Sub. Work great with no chatter. $18 each.

I tried to put the rain x ones on and I can't figure out how they are held in place. Any way you could snap me a picture? I have tride both adapters and neither of them seem to want to hold the arm at all.

Thanks

I spent some time and I did find an "exact" replacement blad for my 2008 Tahoe. They are made by Bosch and I found them at the local O'Rielly Auto Parts store. They don't have them out on display--behind the counter--so you have to ask for them.

Part #4841 and they are $16.95 each.

They look and work exactly like the originals.

Hope I helped.

The blades snapped right in the arm clip. No mods necessary or extra clip. Out of the box right on the truck.

Mine out of the box went on but never snapped in place. As soon as I turned them on they just flopped off. 08, do you have the offset at the end of the arm?

I will have to look into the Bosch ones. I tried the Bosch ION 422A&B and they do not fit for sure. They have a different number online 443 and I tried to order those and our local AutoZone cannot order them. Even though they are listed online as a reseller.

Is this the end you have on yours? I have not found a way to get the rainx blades on that offset straight arm.

My clip is the standard u shape where you slide the wiper clip in and it seats. This is not the same as mine.

Good luck. Does the adapter clip that comes with the wiper pkg not work with this application on yours?

klink

It says it will work but it is a "snug" fit. As snug as I could get it and they just rolled off when I went to use them.

Do you have a LTZ? I wonder if those are different.

Nah, loaded up LT. LTZ to pretty to get sandy on the beach.
