I have trouble finding 12" refills for my '65 pickup. I can usually get 15"ers for my LM at AutoZone, but I found out quite by accident that you can get Universal Refills at AutoZone (probably other places too). They are probably 18" or 20" long. You just buy 'em and snip the ends off after you've installed them. Easy as can be and they work great. They have 'em in stock all the time.

Actually, I don't have a lot of time on my hands, especially not on the 
weekends.  The three store I went to are all within  a couple miles of one 
another and are the nearest auto parts places near my home.  I was also picking 
up other goodies too so I wasn't just doing wiper research.

I didn't order from Lon because I'm trying to find a local source for when I 
need new blades NOW.  Not 2 weeks from now.  2 weeks is a typical turnaround 
time for stuff I order from our west coast vendor.  Even Clarks takes 3-5 days - 
if I order Monday or Tuesday I usually get it by Friday.  I don't check my 
blades all the time so they get bad without my knowing it.  See?
