Robbie, I bought a couple of 28 inch/ 72cm blades last month for this very job. Have not got around to swapping over yet, so would be interested in how you did it.

I have "manufactured" replacements by using parts of modern Bosch Wipers. I am very happy to say that they actually work and wipe the screen rather than spread the smear about like the standard ones. I will get around to photographing the bits and the process and will post here -- they make a huge difference!!
Cheers!
Robbie. I would be very interested in the details and exactly what you used.
Right Folks, This is the description of the "manufacturing" of replacement wipers: Photos attached.
Buy 2 Bosch 21in Superplus wiper blades - as per the photo attached "Donor Blade" - you need 2 as there are just 2 parts required on a blade and you need 3!!!!
Remove the actual blade from the wiper as per "wiper Disassembled"
Seperate the two smaller parts that grip the blade as per "Part required"
Now -- the tricky bit --carefully open out the centre of the part required so as both sides are parallel and then CAREFULLY drill the middle of the part so as to accept a 2.5mm bolt.
Take the original Morgan wiper blade - "original blade" and punch out the rivet holding the blade clip onto the actual blade so you now have the part that clips the wiper blade onto the wiper arm on the car. Drill out the pivot hole to accept the 2.5mm bolt
now bolt the original clip onto the new "part required" and use a small lock washer under the nut and "Locktite" the nut to the bolt , tight enough to still allow the part pivot.
Cut the new wiper blade rubber to length -- I got 3 new blades from the one donor there is a metal part in the middle of the blade so you need a sharp hacksaw!
you then slide the blade into the holder and crimp ONE of the ends of the holder(part required) -- JOB FINISHED
See the photo "Finished Wipers" in my next post(only allowed 5 files with each post!!) for the car with the wipers fitted. They really are an improvement on the originals
