These windshield wipers for the Thor VEGAS/AXIS are expensive! Some more than $50/pair. So investigating the correct application can save aggravation and money.
I am now a constant user of Ed Felker's Handbook and Modified Owner's manual. In the chapter "Wiper Blade Replacements" the very first statement states that the OEM blades are 29 1/2". Reading further, it states (from a Thor Forum user) that the replacement blade is a TRU VISION TV8-32, which is their 32" model. Further checking finds that TRICO lists the blades for the VEGAS/AXIS at 28" !!
I bought (and threw the bad ones away) a pair of the 28" wipers with the correct "J" hook and I think I should have just thrown away the $50- - It would have been easier. I am not happy with these, to say the least.
Can someone clear this up for me (and maybe others) before I spend more money ? TIA. Ed V.
