wiper blade refills

Didn't see a recent thread on this....
I didn't find replacement blades locally, only blade+bow types so I bought some material off the river, and it went on great.
There are numerous offerings in rubber or silicone. the dimensions are shown below(6mmx10mm equivalent)
They come molded together at the skinny edge, which seems to throw people, but they just pull apart

I kept the steel ribs and clip from the previous blade and just cut the rubber to fit and slid it in(with the clip sandwiched back in)

As always, it stopped raining when I bought fresh wipers, so can't give a road test report yet.
