    Can anyone tell me what size wiper blade inserts maverick took and if they were all the same size for all years?

    thanks, Geo.

    They were the same size for all years.

    I am unsure of the size. I always just take one off and take it inside the store with me to compare.

    ii just changed mine last week, i kept the metal blade cuz they are way cooler, then i just changed the rubber part, i believe it was 16 inches. its printed on the metal part of the wiper, then they also had a book in the store that said which one i needed. ( i went to murrays) hope this helps
