i bought a set from an ebay seller; not that impressed since this spring stuff falls on the windshield and get stuck between the blade to the glass... simple remedy is to move blade out and wipe off...
it doesn't really conform to the passenger side that much either; the edge of the wiper isn't in contact with the glass
the only good thing about these frameless wipers is during the winter time where you can just sweep off the snow without hanging up to clear the wipers
as for the rear, i just used a silicone blade refill on the existing wiper frame... silicone will last the life of the vehicle & will not dry rot like regular rubber
too bad they stopped selling triple edge wiper blades from walmart; they were silicone composite that had a lifetime warranty... now they're pushing those frameless wipers that you can't change the rubber parts & would have to buy new ones when they do wear out
