Default School me on ISF wipers - where to buy lexus

I didn't know there were actual differences on my ISF but apparently so. Please school me where to get replace wipers for my 2008 Lexus ISF.

I had a 2011 Lexus IS250 and changed them with Michelin wipers from Costco. You pulled and snapped in. Simple.
I ordered the same design as the Michelin from Amazon, this time Bosch Clear Advantage for my ISF. And you know what? They don't snap in.The current set on the car has a hook/insert on the top that pushes down the wiper.

On my 2008 Lexus ISF, the wipers have the same design as this youtube video:

Where can I buy these (hopefully online or in Canada)?

Had to buy new ones directly from Lexus after hail broke both of mine (~$40), they do just snap in you just have to work the hook into the wipers first then push in.

I bought the rubber insert from the dealer mostly because the F is primarily a fair weather car.

I do however use the Costco ones for all my other cars. I just wanted to keep the stock blades on the isf

Buy just the rubber inserts at the dealership. I did that this past weekend, $8 a piece.

As others have mentioned, save your money and just buy the rubber inserts. Easy and quick install.
I have always bought the inserts for all of my vehicles over the years.

I find there is nothing better then going with what the oem has to offer as it was designed to work flawlessly right from the factory. Oem inserts is all you should be replacing.

i replaced my OEM with rain X wipers before i knew about the inserts. i think i still have the OEMs in the garage that i will get new blades for and switch them back out.

I plan on seeing if I can get the 8mm piaa refills to work on the stock wiper frames.
