Wipers FYI - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Subfixer · 04-03-2023

I ordered new wipers from Rock Auto. The listing was Trico 600202.
I received NAPA 60-020-2. They are a perfect fit.

That's a good bit of info to know. Thanks for posting.

Matt B - you mentioned in another thread you got some from Rock Auto that did not fit - what was that p/n?

I think it was ACDelco 82191. They're too high and get stuck under the hood.

I allways recommend the ANCO 14-series conventional windshield wiper blades (metal frame) for the C4... 19" or 20" long. They are very slim and fit perfect under the hood.

I've been using NAPA 60-020-2 for years and the fit is perfect for our car hoods.

FYI: I ordere a set of ANCO9719 (97-19) from Rockauto. These are exactly the same as those branded as ACDelco. No visible differences and, more important, same fit.
Can it be that there are differences across the hoods GM built or maybe an alignment issue hood<->windshield?

C4 hood alignment was a major issue from the factory. Look at any number of C4's and you will see a lot of variation in the quality of the alignment. Most noticeable along the front edge of the hood versus the nose fascia. Not too sure about the fore/aft variance, but the left/right variance is pretty bad. I took the time to center mine.

FYI. Later C4 changed to s smaller diameter pin on the wiper arm. Not sure the year. N? size does not fit all.

Wouldn't it be best to use original blade holders and put new refills in?

This would be the best situation I would think. Trouble is, a lot of the cars have had the original holders removed at blade replacement.
Took me a long time to find an original set of holders for my '90.
