For randomness sake, I'll post this here because I found this out at the Toyota dealership today:
our cars use a Camry passenger wiper blade and a Venza driver blade.

I needed new wipers and they replaced just the rubber blade section of both wipers, cost me $25 total. Just a helpful note in case you can't get the FRS ones in a pinch, and you don't want to buy the whole wiper assembly each time.

Not to bust your balls - as that's good info - but it rains a total of ~10 times / year here. How would we be "in a pinch?" lol.

Monsoon season. And because it rains so rarely, the blades get dry rotted and people tend to forget about then until the first time it rains. Then they can't see because their wiper blades are shit. It actually rains fairly often down here in Tucson, again mostly during monsoon season.

Also, I feel stupid having to order everything for this car because the Toyota dealer won't stock anything. It's been over a year now and the dealership right next to my place has to still special order oil filters and crush washers.

I hear silicone wiper blades last forever and do a much better job. Have not tried them yet.

I work M-F but I'm at work while the rest of you are sleeping, so I only see this stuff at night when I get up, usually. Imagine not looking at the forum from noon til midnight then trying to catch back up...every.single.day.

I DO believe that people post more from work than they do when at home, but maybe because when we're not at work posting on the forums, we're driving our cars around, and therefore not posting.
