The rear wiper blade on my Tucson is about done like dinner.
It's nominally a 12" blade; actual length is 11 13/16". My son got me a new one from rockauto.com -- an ANCO AR-12X.
Blade replacement is a breeze. Lift the wiper up off the glass and it stays lifted.
Lever out the old blade from its lower end. The blade will pop out of its receptacle once sufficient force is applied. The new blade just snaps into place.
The centre portion of the blade's arm isn't quite symmetrical, but that doesn't seem to matter; the blade goes in either way.
There's a YouTube video that shows blade replacement reasonably well.
