I just replace the rubber blades on my 1998 V70 headlamp wipers. Each time I replace the windscreen wipers I use one of the old ones to re-rubber the headlamp wipers. One old wiper blade cut to size will do both headlamp wipers on the V70.

It's worth retaining the steel strip inside the original rubber headlamp wiper blade to reuse since it may be stainless steel; mine were.

If you're careful, you can do this many times.

It may be an old system but it does work well. Certainly far more effective than the high pressure jets on my later V70; their only function seems to be to consume prodigious quantities of screenwash!
