I bought aftermarkets at Autozone (Bosch OEM) for 20 a piece, and the plastic cover did not fit over them.

Went to my dealer, picked up the OEMs for 10 dollars each.

Moral of the story: always check with your particular dealer first.

And...

If your plastic covers do not fit over your blades, your washers will not spray over the blades, fluid will spray all over the car.
