Default Wiper Blade Refill Size

I cannot seem to find anywhere near me that sells just the refills for wiper blades. Where do you buy your wiper refills? If I order online, do I want to get 6mm or 8mm blades? 2019 ES350. Thanks.

I still have the oems on my 2019 but when needed, I'll replace the entire blade with Trico OEM fit or similar. They are available at most auto suppliers. I shop AdvanceAutoParts.

Why not get the rubber refills for 10$, easy to find too. Do the Trico ones perform better? Check out this guys reviews on them if are looking after market

My experience with aftermarket blades compared to OEM had been negative. At highway speeds they typically do not perform as well as oem.

The arm Spring force is usually designed to work with OEM blade.

That's what I'm looking for. But I can't find refills anywhere locally.

If you can't buy online, try Toyota dealer instead of Lexus. Apparently it's the same parts number.

A lot simpler to change the entire blade and the Tricos are top quality.

I've never had a good durability experience with either Anco or Trico. Bosch, mixed.

By far the best aftermarket wipers i've ever used are PIAA Silicone. Multiple styles are offered for this car. Tire Rack and others carry them.

I'm with you Mike. I also use Trico or Rain-X and I buy them at Walmart for cheap... Been using Trico wipers for 50 years on all my cars including the Corvette...

They are terrific. Im using them on both of our cars. Never checked walmart - i usually buy them online from AdvanceAuto with a discount code and then just pick them up.

I've had icons on all my cars. They're great. As far as the stock blades, my 2021 brand new from the dealer streaks. Sucky blades!

I changed it few months ago:

Order Contents:

P/N Quantity Price Each Description
852140E130 1 $7.07 Windshield Wiper Blade Refill (Right)
852140T050 1 $7.07 Windshield Wiper Blade Refill (Left)

Go to https://parts.toyota.com to order and pickup at local Toyota dealership

Or order online: https://www.ebay.com/itm/254269195453

Remember that you have to have the original wiper blade that comes with the car when it is new for those refills to fit.
