Yea. order originals.

If not, pull them off and measure the legnth and the width. Width is important as there are several sizes of "narrow" inserts. I wouldn't recomend using the "cut-to-fit" ones because the stainless pieces will work themselves out.

I went to the local auto store got the right lenth replacment blades cause they went bad half way to the first service, popped out and in. Then I had to tell the dealer, and they swaped the stock pieces back on with new blades, said if it happens again to just make sure I bring the originals back with me.
