These guys are the best that I've found for wipers and mirrors.

They've been around forever.

Subject: [Healeys] Early 300o wipers

 

I recently got caught in a rain shower (with no top, but that is another
story), and was sadly reminded about how bad the wipers are on my car ('59
BT7).  I must replace the rubbers; a no-brainer, but the spring pressure
provided by that little "leaf spring" is pretty useless.  However, I recall
the wipers being better in the past.  I'd like to preserve the original
wiper arms and my first step will be to try and bend the spring to try and
coax more pressure out of it, but I  wondered if anyone had any brilliant
solutions to increase arm pressure.
