Question Heated wipers question.

I have the winter package on my 2014 is 250. The heated wiper blades need replaced. Do I need to get specific blades/refill, or is the heating element in the housing? I would hate to have to go to the stealership for such a thing.

The blades themselves are not heated, it's the lower part of the windshield that is.

The blades are just regular blades.

Never heard of this feature. I couldn't imagine the blades heated up, in any case. Cool! I mean warm!
