Default Wiper blade refill for 1969 source

Hey everyone,
working on my wiper system since refills are hard to find now does anyone have a link or source to the correct refills? i know they have to be low profiles as the taller ones will contact the hidden wiper system.
i know you can buy a whole arm for 17$ from zip each side but id like to just get the refill as i restored the arms already.
thanks

Zip indica6tes that they have the refills as WW-406. They aren't cheap, but they say they are correct and supposedly they are in stock.

The correct blade is Trico 33-162 available from various sources, refill part number 43-160.

For my '67 (15" blades), I also couldn't locate any refill-only sources so bought two Trico Classics with the metal back and stripped out the rubber to put into my original backs. Worked great and not a terribly expensive way to go about it - just feels wasteful.
