I might try them. The OEM blades are OK, but not great. It would be good to keep an original set for shows, rather than everyday use.

Any set I ordered off Subaru usually came as a standard replacement [same arm fitment, same length] but without the original SVX equipment "lifter". I don't think they make them any more.

Tom just put a set on Nan's (fancycargal) car, so they must still be available. There were really expensive, though, as far as I can remember. But then again, I AM a cheapskate. I'll ask Tom the details tomorrow.

You can see the "bump" right where blade assembly and the arm meet. On the summer setting, it rests against the stop.
