Replacing the Wiper inserts on 2015 model
#22
The 4 main sizes, if I recall correctly, were 6mm square, 6mm trapezoid, 8mm square, and 8mm trapezoid. That's the description of the cross section – when you cut the strip with a razor blade.

Not to derail this thread but does anyone have an opinion on how essential the metal spline in the rubber insert is for wiper performance?
I went to replace my driver side insert and there is no metal spline (I purchased the 2007 FIT used) + there is no metal spline in the OEM replacement insert!
Any idea where one might purchase just the spline?!
Or would I be better off at this point replacing the wiper blade...? Any current blade recommendations? Thanks!
