Does anyone know a replacement brand of wiper blade for a 2017 488 spider that actually fit?

I bought the Bosch Aeroblades (AR/26 U) but they DO NOT fit the driver's side. The arm comes in at 90 degrees so the cloking mechanism will not close.

Can anyone recommend a high quality brand that are a direct fit?

Thanks

These have been recommended on F Chat but I can't vouch for them personally.

They'll be Denso Hybrid blades, same as Toyota, assuming they are similar to my same-age Portofino. I was quoted about £250 for a pair from Ferrari but paid about £35 for a pair of OEM Denso blades that are faultless.

Mine are a DU065R and DU040R. The number indicates the length in centimetres and the "R" is important, as it indicates they are for RHD vehicles; the blades are handed where they mount on the wiper arms. Assuming they are indeed Denso Hybrids (should be easy to tell as they're a distinctive shape) then just measure and order the appropriate numbers.

I was told that Denso Hybrid are used on the 458.
Got mine from Eurocarparts and were correctly matched using the registration number. They were in stock at the local small-town branch so presume they’re common to many cars, as others suggest.
