thanks folks for your help.
I always just get refills from Toyota. When I ordered what I thought were refills from TRD Sparks, I got the whole wiper blades, front and rear. Anyway, in most cases, the OEM blades will work better, since they are designed to work with the curve of the windshield. Not to mention it is cheaper to replace the inserts than the whole blade.

Don't throw away your OEM wipers -- you might decide to put them back on with new inserts in the future.
