Have you tried J.C. Whitney? Appears to be a prominent link right off
the http://www.jcwhitney.com/ main page.

The winter blades just have covers to help keep ice from building up
on them as you drive. They don't do a thing for the fun of crawling
out on a cold sleety morning to find an inch of ice covering your
wiper blades. Sometimes a goodly shot of concentrated washer fluid
poured along the edges will help loosen them enough that the gorilla
tactics can be applied without risk to your wiper arms. Not as
politically correct, but if your parking area allows it, starting
the vehicle and turning the defroster on "blast furnace" setting
while you head back indoors for another cuppa joe and a donut works
even better.

Naww, you need those aerodynamic type blades that won't blow
away in 150 mph winds.

No no no, we clean the windshields before leaving, we are talking about
the buildup as we drive along. I can reach out the window and snap the
end of the blade up in the air to knock ice or heavy snow off it as I am
driving along. This saves pulling over for a while, especially when
getting off the road is dangerous like in a white out.
