The rubber part of the blade for this car is easily removed by prying the cap off the outboard end of the blade and bending up the metal clip, but I can't find any supplier of the insert. Has anyone seen a source of these, or just an aftermarket blade assembly? I just don't want to pay VWOA $70 for something which should cost no more than $20. For those who haven't noticed, as of 2002 1/2, the passat is cursed with an oddball windshield wiper arm which won't accept any aftermarket blade, as far as I know. It's an excellent car otherwise!
