I recently bought a bunch of refills at a store that was going out of business. They were stupid cheeep, like 50 cents a pair. I bought alot of the longest size I need, and cut them down to fit all shorter applications.
They work great, but the first time I cleared the ice/snow from them, by lifting the blade and letting it smack the windshield, I shattered the plastic backing. Fortunately, I was in my driveway, with a lot of spares handy.
I'll be more careful in the future, and I'll always carry a spare.
Mike
