Default Windshield wipers

I have a 2006 MCS. I'm interested in places, other than the dealer, where I can get replacement wiper blades for my rear window. Any suggestions?

Also, I switched my front wipers to the contoured type wipers. FYI, they work really well...where they come in contact with the windshield. They don't seem to contour completely on the passenger side, but they work well enough that I like them better as they clean the glass better. I was hoping to find a contour type blade for the rear window, but no luck so far.

Thanks for any advice you can give.

I bought a cut to fit pair of refills then just pull the old blade out and cut it to match the old one ... Since they come in a pair you can make another the next time it needs replaced , some have bought 20" ones and made 4 out of it but the second one doesn't fit well as they don't have the "clip"
