OEM Airfoil wiper blade assembly found!

[jk_aktion]

So I made a post before about where to get OEM Airfoil wipers. Well I found the manufacturer through my work. Just received my new set, and if anyone is interested on keeping or going back to the stock setup let me know.

**edit updated

I acquired them through WorldPac parts supply, unfortunately I walked out on my shop this morning for the mishaps and bs I ran into today.. Tired of it and it doesn't help my PTSD.. So, here is the part# info and other #'s on the package below. These were specifically made for European cars Porsche/BMW etc. You can create the account or find someone/business that uses WorldPac to order them, or call them directly or Valeo themselves linked below. They cost me $25 for both. Hope this helps and sorry I can no longer grab these for anyone.

Is there a reason to run those over quality aftermarket pieces, other than to keep the car as OEM as possible?

 

[Huachipato]

Keeping the car as OEM as possible is the only reason to hunt for one as far as I can tell. I personally prefer the new blade style wipers.

Ford did seem proud of them at the time though. I remember all the informational documents sharing how the wipers were functional at high speeds.

Yeah mainly just the "OEM look" vibe.

i would love the link to aquire another set. mine are very worn.

info please.

I would also like the info.

I ended up removing the rubber blades from mine and painting the aero part with black trim paint. I put a new set of rubber blades in and they look brand new.

I still have my originals on my car. The blade is half gone, but I refuse to change them.

I wipe them down with Meguires protectant so they stay shiny. I am going to try to swap the blade part out to make them functional again. I do not drive the car in the rain so I have been fine so far.

Edited/updated with info.

Mine still had them when I bought the car. But I swapped to some Bosch wipers. Guess I should've held on to the stock ones.

 

[Goose17]

Are these "like the OEM blades" or are they in fact the OEM blades?

I think you can still get them from Ford. I got a set about 1 year ago from my Ford Dealer they were oem Motorcraft.

When I called Tousley last fall, I was told they are no longer offered through Ford.

 

[masterjr33]

FORD is out of OEM.

can anyone verify these are exact OEM? and not just similar ?

 

[MBoyle1]

I'm still on the originals .........but have a extra set of OEM motorcraft 2025

Update... these are the wrong size, went to install and they are a little larger, I guess WorldPac has them labeled wrong on the site.

My car has Motorcraft blades, I thought they were the original blades! Looks like I'll need a set of these

 

[Tractionless1]

OE here and off the car along with the arms as I don't drive it in the rain and it enables a nice view of the hood. The aero helps hold the blade to the windshield at high speed.
