Anyone know if any of the non-OEM windshield wiper refills will fit the OEM wiper blade?

I'd hate to buy a new blade, if I don't have to.

If I should get a new blade, which do you recommend?

Scott,

I use the Bosch Micro edge Refills. They fit in the original blade; work great and cost less than six dollars per pair. You can cut one down for the smaller blade in the back if they do not have the size that you need. Just use a strong pair of diagonal cutters to trim the metal portion to match the size of the original, and then cut the rubber with a razor blade. Napa also makes "exact fit replacement's" as well.
