Wiper Blade Replacements
9
At least for BRZ owners, it’s somehow not possible to get replacement wiper blades from the dealer. Subaru dealers will only sell you the whole wiper assembly and Subaru doesn’t even list part numbers for the replacment blades on their parts website.
Luckily, we can buy GR86 replacement blades from Toyota for a fraction of the price of the whole assembly. Replacing just the blade means you don’t create unnecessary waste (i.e. the old assembly). That’s good karma and will help offset the tires you are destroying at the track.
Here are the parts you need:
| Part | Toyota P/N | Blade length | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| LHS Wiper Blade (US Driver) | SU003-09465 | 550 mm | $7.04 |
| RHS Wiper Blade (US Passenger) | SU003-09467 | 500 mm | $6.38 |
The SU- prefix on the part numbers means these are sourced from Subaru, but Subaru still won’t sell them directly!
For reference, these are the parts Subaru wants you to buy:
| Part | Subaru P/N | Blade length | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| LHS Wiper Assembly (US Driver) | 86548CC000 | 550 mm | $26.18 |
| RHS Wiper Assembly (US Passenger) | 86548CC050 | 500 mm | $27.50 |
