Hi All,

The Australian made Trico flat blade wipers are proving very difficult to obtain. Mine has split, (not surprising as I have no idea how old they are), and I have the option of some spare MG Magnette ones made in England by Rainbow. The advantage of these is I can fit modern inserts, the disadvantage is they are a lot bigger, chunkier.

Anyone know of a good suplier of Trico stuff in Oz or are they just unobtainium now?

Hi Martin,
The only company I can think of that supplies these is a UK based firm (I'm sure there is an Aussie-based one but I don't know where). Anyway, this is their website if you want to visit it: http://www.vintagecarparts.co.uk/en/list+windscreen+and+wipers~wiper+arm/

Good Luck.
