I think so. The set you need is A298S
 
Mine are less than a year old and seem rubbish.
Sometimes wonder if someone's done a swap on me in Tesco carpark
 
My wiper blades will be 2 years old in June (first and original set) They are still good as new

I wipe and clean the blades every time I clean the car. But then with rain repellent (not RainX, that stuff is cr@p) I don't use them as much as most people, and also combined with majority motorway driving.
 
I have a whole bunch from Aquapel (from USA) to Gyeon which I'm currently using. Where as RainX is not very effective, doesn't last that long and makes a mess of your windscreen afterwards.
 
Mine are also as good as new, I've just never been impressed since first using them.
You don't use them as often as most people? how do you manage that ???

Well, doing motorway speeds with a good rain repellent means I hardly use the wipers. Rain drops just hit the screen and zip off

Have no issues with my front wipers, but the rear one is awful - it doesn't seem to apply pressure to the full length of the blade, so the top of the rear window never gets 'wiped'. Inspecting the blade reveals no damage. Anyone else have that issue?

Yes, back and front though, often leaves streaky patches right in front of my eyes.

yes, it does seem speed related though i.e. some speeds/conditions OK, others like yo describe ....................
 
Don't have any issues front or back.
