    All the 1967 Trico blades have the same "roof peak" (or upside down "V") shape. I believe the only difference is that the "late" 67 blade holders are stamped "TRICO" and "MADE IN USA". The original rubber inserts (Trico RF-15) have 3 ribs. I had a couple dozen of these 67 Trico blades but they were all shipped to New Mexico.

    The 1967 Trico holders with the "15" stamping just below the arm attaching part on the "roof peak" were not used in the 1967 production line.

        Robert - William's picture is an excellent one of the peaked top, i.e. inverted "V", configuration of the TRICO w/s/w blade holders used on 66L and 67 Corvettes and other GM passenger cars. The differences between the various blade holders are on the information stamped on the tops of the TRICO w/s/w blade holders. The earliest of the peaked top TRICO w/s/w blades had the TRICO logo stamped on the tops of both the upper and lower portion of the holders; next came some in the transition period with TRICO and MADE IN USA stamped on the top of the upper portion of the holders and TRICO stamped on the lower end; and then came the version with TRICO and MADE IN USA stamped on the tops of both the upper and lower portions of the holders.

        So, if you are looking for a set of appropriate TRICO wiper holders for a 1967 it will depend on when the car was build.

        Also, you should check the Archives I'm sure you'll be able to find more info.

            Robert - Correct, i.e., peaked shaped top 15" TRICO holders with the TRICO logo stamped on both ends on the top. Pete
