    If you want to refresh the insert for the rear wiper, just take one of the old inserts you remove from the front and cut it to length $0.00. :)

    That doesn't get me the rainx kind though. It would get me the same wiper with a new insert with the same design. :(

    I made that mistake. I replaced them with Anco and threw away the originals only to find out Anco sucks, didn't live up to expectations, now I need new inserts but wonder if I can put new inserts from a much better brand.

    Can these be used withAnco blades?
