Where can I get a replacement wiper for the rear of my '06 xb? Advance, auto zone, walmart, sears, no one has them. Is it a Toyota only item?

 

Wiper? wiper arm? wiper blade?

 

If you need just the rear wiper insert, get it from the dealer. It's less then 5 bucks.

 

^true dat!

Don't let them try to sell you the whole assembly!

 

Mine needs replacing too. I'll be going to Toyota next week!

 

Yes, just the blade refill. Can't find it anywhere. Thank you. I'll check with my dealer.

 

Damn, I avoided getting robbed. The Toyota dealer nearest to me would only sell the whole wiper arm for $55. I ended up getting the cheapest wiper Autozone carries (of course, no one sells blade refills anymore), pulling out the blade, trimming it, and putting it on my xB.

 

Seeing as I work for a dealer, I'll post the part number up on Monday so you can get the correct wiper insert.

 

Awesome. That would be good to know. Granted, it's not a big deal to make a regular wiper refill fit, seeing as how the nearest dealer is 30 miles away, but if I can have the real thing, that would be nice too.

Thanks.

 

My dealer said he could get just the rubber for $5 but he doesn't have any in stock. He said his boss won't let him usually buy just 1 of something that small that he has to order 10 and he may not let him. He said he would let me know by Monday.

Sounds pretty crappy to me but what the hell...I need the blade.

 

Last time I checked, there is no minimum order needed for a wiper insert. If he won't get one for you,let me know. I'm pretty sure I have them in stock. I'll sell you one and send it to you.

 

Hell then, I'll just buy it from you if you have it. What would it cost shipped to 29805?
Thanks.

 

You have PM and for anyone else that needs the part number for the rear wiper insert it's 85214-52020.

 

What about the windsheild wiper blades? I still have my original ones. The still work okay, but I'm ready for new ones. I want OEM because they've lasted over two years and I live in Louisiana, and I use them...

 

You have a PM

 

Just walk into Toyota and ask for them. That's what I did. They were just the wiper refills only, you need to swap the metal supports to the new refills though!

 

The part numbers for the front inserts are 85213-YZZC3.

 

Rear refill blade: Anco N-12R

 

Don't know if I should create my own post but I have sort of the same issue with my '06 Xb. Except stupid me went and got an Anco rear window wiper that I thought would be universal. I went to take the wiper off of the arm thinking it would be the same as replacing the front wiper blades since I never owned a vehicle with rear wipers. I was doing this out in the parking lot and I was in a hurry. It wasn't coming off of the arm nicely and I ended up snapping the wiper in half (not the arm just the wiper blade assembly). I figured what the hell I have a replacement anyway and continued to break it more until the little pegs that seat in the holes of the arm broke and I got it off.

I then go to put on my fancy new replacement only to find out there is no way to attach it. I go back in the store and they say they don't have a replacement for this model. I then call the Scion dealer I bought it from and they tell me that they just use rubber refills and transfer me to the parts department. The parts guy then tells me I have to get the whole arm to get the wiper and will cost $80.

I see on a lot related forum threads that people just reply to take the whole thing off, use some RainX and be done with it. That really doesn't work here in MN where 2/3 of the year your vehicle is getting splattered with road salt and road grime after any snow fall. That back window clouds up pretty fast and RainX isn't good enough for keeping the dirt specks from collecting.

Is there any aftermarker wiper that will fit the 06 wiper arm? Anyone rig something to work with aftermarket wipers? All experience I have ever had with refills has been pretty poor anyway, with the rubber gradually sliding out of the blade. Anyone that has removed their rear wiper looking to sell me their's for a good price?

 

why don't you just order it online?
