Anyone know where I can get a wiper blade (rubber insert only) for a 2004 Vista 288?

I am not sure about a 288 but for my 268 I just bought the complete blade assembly with holder. One of the adapters allowed me to screw it to the wiper arm. It actually looked better than the factory blade since it was a black holder on a black arm vs. the factory (I assume) silver arm.

I removed the rubber blade and took to an auto parts store. They matched the length and no big deal. I believe they came in pairs

Take the blade to your favorite auto part house and they will match it.

I bought my last set at NAPA.

I just replaced the ones on my 05 348. I used universal replacements, I believe the 7mm width. Feed them into the arm and then snap/cut off the excess.

I used an ANCO N-18R replacement on our '04 288.
