Default Windshield wipers that fit!

Saw some posts but couldn't find a definitive answer. Will these work - I'm also not sure if they're selling the matched pair or just one blade that would fit a 74 C3 Vette. Any help would be great! Thanks! See link below.

By the description, certainly sounds like one blade. These are most likely Trico Classic 16" wipers. You can find them at a number of places online using the Googler. I put the Trico Classics on my '67 (15") a couple years ago and am quite pleased, however, I pulled out the rubber refills and put them into my original arms.

Are the wipers both the same size? I can't seem to find anything stating the size of each blade. Thanks.

Looks similar to the ones I replaced this weekend on our 78. The springs in the middle look like they would fit over the bullet on the arm.
