Velroc, they are 28" with a 12 x 4 Hook hard to find at auto parts stores.
Here is a link Dyna 28" wiper blades at a good price.

You can go with a shorter blade. One or two inchs isn't a problem.

I bought these from Amazon and they fit perfectly. Same price as the ones from Unity after shipping costs.

did you call your insurance agent? they may have a recommended dealer and you may find that your insurance covers the cost.

My local Napa store ordered replacements for me and had them the next day. I just took one of the originals in and he found it in their catalog. Cost me a little over $60.00 but they are good.

Lichtsinn Motors will have all parts on sale tomorrow, 12/29, for 25% off. F53 wiper blades are about $50 a pair plus shipping. Amazon has them for $35 each with free Prime shipping.

So I replaced my Vista 35F wiper (F53 frame) with same length ones from Walmart. Easy. No issues. Think I simply had to re-use the previous arm-to-blade plastic adapter.

Good luck!
Tom

Tom,

What adapter? Does it come with the Bosch? If not, where do I get one?

Thanks,
Sue

Its the plastic piece that is installed depending on what kind of wiper arm end (like a hook, or bayonet, etc.) a vehicle has. I reused the one that was already on the old wipers that fit the wiper arms. None of the ones with the blades I bought worked.

Best of luck,
Tom

Interesting. We don't have an adapter, just a giant size J hook. Can't find any blades to replace current ones due to size. We are thinking abut replacing the arms, read someplace it costs $60 at NAPA and then you can use normal blades from Walmart or wherever.
