Default 08 XJ8 Wiper Blade Refills

Would someone mind helping remember what the model number is for Trico Refill Blades for my '08 Vanden Plas? I used to order from O'Reilly's but they no longer stock it nor provide the actual wiper blade model number. Thank you!

I see my wiper is from Australia, though made in China. Never mind. I just flew last weekend to Melbourne for a 2-day holiday 500km driving or so, and the one Jag I saw there was an X-Type. Maybe they store their X350's in the Simpson desert or something, I never saw one. LOL. However, I can confirm that they do have rain there, as well as koala bears though I never saw a kangaroo.

The refill shown works a treat. I have no idea why one would want the full arm gizmo, since it's the rubber that wears out.

Pistols are made for intimidating varmints.

Kangaroos don't need wiper blades.

I agree with you and so do Jaguar. The wiper rubber is available separately (see item 5):





The Jaguar P/N's also help in matching aftermarket alternatives as does the information the same rubber fits 1999 - 2008 S-Type:
