G'day
Well how good is that. Wonderful that Alex in Maine is helping to keep
Australia's balance of payments in the black.
As we are approaching our winter it will keep me warm at night thinking that
there is a little bit of Australia on Alex's BT7.
Just in case you didn't know Tridon is an all Australian company that
supplies a huge range of products to the automotive industry. Have a look at

Subject: Re: [Healeys] wiper blades
Inspired by Scott's excellent article, I went over to my local VIP store
here in southern Maine, and the friendly salesman helped me find a wiper
"refill" that works.
It's a Tridon All Season-Plus 18 with an 83P-18R part number.
There's enough material to make four blades for a big Healey. The refill
includes a nice backplate that fits the holder on my BT7 perfectly. There's
a clip on one end to keep it in place. I used a hot soldering iron to
slightly deform the plastic on the other end to keep the blade retained.
Works like a champ.
