Thanks guys. Interesting that you both have 20 in. It seems that Bosch is the original part, based on your comments. The little "computer" they have for size selection at the store indicates 18in, which is the size of the wipers on the car. I replaced them with Tryco narrow refills, I could not find the Bosch ones. Next time I'll go to NAPA.
Thanks for your help. |

Not sure if your 328 is the same as 348 or not, but I just measured the length and width of each blade (20" both sides for me) and bought them for $3 ea @Pepboys. Don't have to purchase Bosch brand, just get the narrow refill of the same length and it should work fine! |

My 89 and 92 both had Bosch 20s when I picked them up. I have been able to simply replace with Bosch refills purchased at NAPA. (Most other local stores no longer carry anything but Trico or complete blade sets..) |

Does anyone know what brand the original wiper blades for an 87 328 were? My car currrently has Bosch 18 in. wiper blades, but I cannot find identical replacements (blade OR blade plus metal holder) at any local parts store. If original, I'd like to keep it so, if not, maybe I can find the originals.
Thanks. |
