You can't buy made to fit wiper blades for the Disco II in regular auto stores. At least I've never found any. I just buy replacement blades that are long enough for a few bucks and cut them to fit with a pair of dykes. Look it over, you'll figure it out.

100% correct.
Thats why some people buy DI wiper arms, then you can buy your blades anywhere.

That's exactly it, so much easier than hassling for a DI wipers.

The book will tell you what size they are.
I think 16", 13" for the rear but either a 14" or 12" will work as 13" is a odd size.
But double check the book.

I got 21" fronts and a 14" rear. Amazingly, Wal-Mart had every size of the triple edges except for 21", they didn't even have a spot on the hanger for 21"! I'll keep looking around, almost went with the rain-x because my current ones are SHOT, but I'm going to hold out.

Def hold out, check other Wal-Marts or maybe order them.
Or on your way home from work pop in and check the shelf.
I too had a hard time getting them as they are always sold out.

The Tripe Edge blades do not do that, and they wipe so clean it is amazing.
I have them on the front and rear of my Disco.
How $$$ are they?
